Re: Venthos gets his car! Delivery Pics and Video!

Congrats.

Great hearing you had a little party their.

Enjoy the ride, but care for that clutch. With all that torque the concerns of stalling should go away quickly.

Cheers.

Dang that car looks good! You got one heck of a surprise witht that delivery!! Enjoy! Don't feel bad, my dad made me just get in a car with a stick and made me drive it. That is how I learned. So keep it in the neighborhood for a bit and you will be fine

Thanks guys for all of the comments! Feels GREAT to have this car. I took it out for another ride and am substantially better than I was the first go around. It was drilled into my brain to be cautious about slipping too much on the clutch when taking off so I was apparently letting the clutch go way too quickly.

After I let is slip for a little bit so the car could begin to roll before I let it all the way out I've been doing much better since and haven't stalled it. I'm sure I'll get better/tighter at using the clutch in time. But for now this works.

I was only down on my gas by about 1/8th of a tank from full but I decided to go take a test drive to learn driving better on the surface roads to the gas station.

Even in that short time to fill up 1/8th of a tank, someone pulled up as they were leaving and asked about my car commenting it was bad ass. I'm on cloud nine here today. haha.

Thanks for all of your guys' support and everything you've done. The journey to get this car wasn't easy or short, but man was it worth every second.
