How To Of The Day: How To Drive Stick In Five Minutes
It’s a given that every human has a soul-demanding right to know how to drive a manual transmission, and it’s one of the greatest problems facing mankind today (no exaggeration — ISIS wouldn’t even exist if everyone knew what a clutch did).
If you had to describe what we do here at Jalopnik, chances are you’d say something about how we’re an organization dedicated to making the world a better place through song and magic. Oh, and we do shit with cars. This episode of Neat Stuff in Cool Cars is a mix of both, as we get racing driver and NBC Sports contributor Parker Kligerman to teach people to drive stick.
It’s a given that every human has a soul-demanding right to know how to drive a manual transmission, and it’s one of the greatest problems facing mankind today (no exaggeration — ISIS wouldn’t even exist if everyone knew what a clutch did). It’s unbearable that so many people still don’t know how. So we’re solving it, by teaching these three hapless folks how to drive stick.
They all come in with their own reasons for wanting it — fear of not being able to hijack a car, impressing dudes, making Ballaban look like an ass — and it’s so very satisfying to see it happen.
Plus, this is the official debut of the Jalopnik Crotch-Cam system of pedal-observing, and it’s fantastic. Enjoy.
