Thanks, ring. It's never too late to learn...though some things you really don't have a major need to know...like shifting a manual trans if you don't ever have to drive one...or if you have a car with one of the better paddle shifters, such as the Ferraris...a simple flick of the lever and the computer does everything near-perfectly and better than any human...engage the computer controlled electro-hydraulic clutch, perfectly rev match the motor to the road speed in the selected gear, engage the gear, release the clutch...and a few milliseconds later you're happily in your selected ratio.
