Oops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got rid of my old classic clunker (peace of shit!) and replaced it with a new 2005 mustang . Only problem, it's a manual transmission and I've never driven one before.

Parents, teach your children how to drive sticks.

I'm gettin better though:-) I was coming back from the grocery store last nite and a 2003 corvette pulled up next to me (IT'S ON NOW!) No, I wasn't planning on drag racing (I'm too old for that) but I wanted to at least appear competent with my newly learned skills.

I lightly dumped the clutch at the light and the car briskly skirted foward, I picked up speed and smoothly shifted into second, kicked the throttle and I was all ready for third! I wasn't paying attention and accidently shifted back into first (Ouch!) My tires loudly screeched and I was suddenly thrown forward as I quickly decelerated. I'm sure the dude in the vette got a good laugh as he pulled away.

Hey at least I didn't stall it.
