Default The driver mod....where to find it?

I have read dozens of posts talking about the driver mod and the T56. I did a search on it and really didn't find anything. I understand the concept. This is the 1st 6 speed car I have had and I know I can't drive the thing great. I just want to learn how. Thanks.

You cant really do anything other than practice and get familiar with your car. The driver mod is all mental.

Well, not really, just practice.

I had to read this twice. lol

Basicly find a better driver and install him or her in the driver seat of your car.

use the search button to find posts about how to shift, then go practice alot. read posts by this guy called 'Ranger' on here and at corvetteforum. He's one of the forums best manual drivers. He also has a shifting lesson on his site.

Yeah I am wanting to learn how to drive better. I practice a lot I know I can't launch with a ****. I will have to do a search for Ranger. I have the factory hurst shifter with lous short stick. I shift as fast as I can, but still feel it's not good enough.

I appreciate the help guys.
