I was reading tips on driving manual better and read something interesting.....
Tip said:
With many manual transmissions, shifting from neutral to first gear will cause an audible grinding of the transmissions synchronizer rings.
Avoid shifting directly from neutral to first gear. Instead, move the shift lever briefly into second, then shift into first gear. And never rest your hand on the shift level or your foot on the clutch pedal. Use you right foot for both the accelerator and the brake. Use your left foot for the clutch.
My question is: From a dead stop, I'm not suppose to start from neutral to first, but **** slighty to 2nd than to 1st to start? Sounds kinda funny to me....
