Reply to "Lane's Beck Super Coupe #3"

I learned heel&toe on my first car, a crappy 69 beetle that had 4 different tires in two different sizes on it when purchased. You can imagine how well it was set up.  Anyway, armed with a copy of an article by LJK Setright, and the conviction I had more in common with Jimmy Clark than the average bear, I managed to learn it.  Once I mastered it on that pig pretty much everything else has been pretty easy.  Later experience with a friend's 2002 was revelatory, damn.  Then when I got into old British iron with their straight cut 1st gears I learned double clutching.  At the moment my MINI has a really good set up for me with the exception of modern car rev hanging, but I've ranted about that before, so never mind about that.  Can't wait for my coupe to get back to basics.

Lane, you are gonna have soooooo much fun!!!
