Default Don't you just hate it when you're faced with your own idocy? I certainly hate it.

Believe me, I do my share of stupid things as well.

Default The last stick I drove wouldnt start in gear...

'02 VW beetle. it was my friends and the car i used to learn stick. first time i got in my quat at the sellers house i nearly rear ended his very nice 350Z cause the quat was in gear.

my quat is the first car ive habitually driven thats a stick and i still find myself starting it in gear. i leave it in 3rd so it just lurches and then stalls. probably not good for the engine or clutch but hopefully i dont have too much time left with the current ones

Default join the club my man...

i've been getting progressively dumber after college... but that might have something to do with the lack of challenge to the 'ol brain at the moment

Default I NORMALLY have the habit of starting with the clutch depressed..

...just a brain fart today. As $656 + tax brain fart :-( At least it's a better door (R16 as opposed to the R12 which is there now). It will be installed tomorrow.
