Hey you guys , I just wanted to update you on what went down yesterday ... I ended up test driving a Ralliart and to my surprise I did pretty good at first .... then I stalled it about 5 times , lol! I quickly learned that I was letting the clutch off a little to early. After that it was a piece of cake ... I still need to work on my downshifting a little. I can honestly say the RA was alot easier to drive then my friends civic (which is a little older). It could also be that my skills are improving. To put this story to an end , I am bringing in my finance ap. tomorrow and possibly getting the car this week

I learned how to drive a manual with my new oz rally. I think I had only killed it maybe five times before I had it down. Go for it.
