Late reply I know, as you can probably guess I've been busy playing with my new toy for the past couple of days hehe. Starting to get used to it; it's actually not so much the clutch that I'm finding weird, it's the gas pedal. It's just so bloody sensitive lol, and there's a sort of dead-zone at the top that gives you next to no movement, then you move to like 1mm below the dead zone and you shoot off haha. I love the fact that once you're moving, changing gears is so nice. No need to even use gas or bring the clutch up slowly while changing gears, just speed-match your gear changing then you can bring the clutch up as quickly as you like and it'll still be smooth.
Moving off from a standstill isn't very nice in this car though. Just seems like to get a smooth move-off you need to give it quite a lot of gas, which doesn't sound very nice at all lol. During my first drive at midnight then yesterday morning, just felt like I'd been over-revving during move-offs because of the noise. So at one junction I tried not revving so much, and stalled. So yeah, just one of those cars that needs revving a lot to get it moving smoothly, probably because it's an old model with a small engine. Pretty unforgiving little car as well, you don't quite to something right and it'll let you know haha.
Think my speedometer is out a bit as well, it says I'm doing dead on 30 but everyone seems to be going faster than me, surely it can't just be that everyone is speeding and it does feel like I'm driving slower than 30.
Yeah definitely making a trip to pizza hut myself on my next payday, looking forward to it
Never been to Frankie & Bennie's myself.
How was rock challenge in the end?
Bit unlucky that
There weren't many people when we went, but one of the people that were there stunk about half the place out after they'd used the toilet
The ones I've got now are alright and have definitely helped. Could definitely do much better though tbh.
