    • @Multydrifter
      @Multydrifter Před 6 lety +3

      I suggest you to use the engine break and downshift to slow down, and don't put it in neutral before stopping, the car acts differently if it's not in gear, good video anyway, even though i didn't liked the way he handled that stick, in europe beginners shift like that

    Out of all stick shift tutorials, I find this one the most helpful

  • @justinbuice
    @justinbuice  Před 7 lety +168

    Just to be clear, the method of starting from a stop with no gas is to help you learn and feel the friction point of the clutch. I ALWAYS give my car some gas when I am starting from a stop (mostly because I wouldn't start rolling fast enough for other drivers behind me). Some cars cannot start moving from a stop without giving them some gas or they will stall, however most modern day cars are able to automatically add fuel to compensate for not using the throttle. Again, this technique is for practice only, hope this helps!

    • @Paul-nt9fc
      @Paul-nt9fc Před 6 lety +1

      Justin Buice I realize you hold the clutch in a bit everytime you shift as you go to the next gear. is that okay for the clutch?

    • @tarandeepsingh740

      You can do whatever you want. When i first started driving stick I I downshifted but now I just stick it in neutral and coast myself to a stop. But I feel like coasting to a stop is a bit more advanced. Yes it's fine to downshift I just like to use my clutch as little as possible

    • @jayyyceee8403
