I know how to drive a stick....I dont know how to race one...
what RPMs do you want to shift at.......
what tips do you all know of
I dont want to be on the road and give mustangs a bad rep...especially with a terminator
every day people f with me......i beat everyone so far, but i want to destroy them for even thinking they should mess with me...ha ha ha
Im talking every day drivers like a-holes in beamers and acuras......etc...I know the ones that would beat me and the ones that wont.
PS i hate slow a** trucks that are loud and come by me and let me hear their exhaust...who gives a sh** how it sounds.....youre slow. I do like the people that generally want to see a show though...i can tell the difference

Well if you have the stock Eaton, shift at about 6k, not redline. Also, powershift if you can! And drive it like you stole it, but don't be stupid in some situations.

your clutch will not last long if you are power shifting.

Ya I don't think the phrases "how to" and "stick shift" are a good combination on a post.
Just like everybody else here did, drive it till you drive it really well, then drive it some more. And i'm talking about daily driving, not racing. Hell I'm still improving my driving and I've been driving a stick for 3 years.

Do not race if you do not know how to.
Go to the track and practice, until you get it right. You're going to make an ass out of yourself, so be ready - but keep practicing.
On a side note: You don't want to shift at redline, but you don't want to shift to early either. If you shift to early (while you're shifting at the peak of your power band) your leaving yourself in a low rpm in the next gear. I always shifted a few hundred rpm shy of redline, this way I wasn't nailed the revlimiter and I was keeping myself in the race by not premature shifting..
(some of these guys have a problem with doing things premature  lol)

i learned how to powershift at 16 on a black fox body at normal speeds it burned the clutch up but it was a p.o.s anyway :) i would never dream to try to learn on the cobra, sorry but learn on a different car bud :) and trust me they know u suck at driving even if ur beating them they can hear the slow shifting
but alas im still not the best driver .. see thread ..in need of a new clutch :)
