mysql is your brothers name Neville by any chance? My brother learned to drive stick on his 1st test drive too, and he also has fallen asleep twice at the wheel and one of those times he flipped his car in a ditch. Haha that's odd.

I took the test drive and then took a lesson on how to drive stick. I was fine driving it home after I picked up the car a week later...

Some people never learn how to drive a stick.

They claim they know how and drive for years, but then when you see them slip the clutch etc..you start laughing.

Drove sticks my whole life and stalled the 8 my first time. It won't fit on a car dolley or transport carrier so best to let someone take the wheel. If you get in the open practice with your friend.
