my g/f doesnt want to drive my car she said its too hard to drive a stick... plus i prolbably wouldnt let her cause she hit a dumpster ... lol you know them dumpsters just jump into the road sometimes, damn i hate when that happends
I taught my fiancee how to drive the car. She could barely drive a stick and jumping to a spec 3 clutch would be a trick for her.. I let her drive it every other day and she's about ready for the track is all i have to say!!!

I have told her i'd teach her tho ... probably one of the only other people i'd let drive it. My list is short:Dad
Brother
Roommate (has had 3 LS1's, so I know i can trust him ... and i know where he sleeps).
and the girlfriend ... but she doesn't want to. My car scares her
nope bc my gf hit a parked car a couple weeks back... she just left my place
she calls and says: "patrick, my car wont start"
me: "ok i'll be out there in a second"
she says: "well i hit a car"
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, like 5 houses down she hits a parked car, how do you do that? she will never come anywhere close to driving my car, she cant drive a 6spd anyways

My ex was afraid to drive my truck as a standard. Didn't want to mess it up. Once the LT1 and Auto went in, she road with me, realized the power, and was afraid to drive it. I threw her the keys once or twice... she refused. Then one day she asked, so I let her (just down 2 blocks on Fry rd). She was practically idling so I told her to jab it a little. She gave it about 1/2 throttle, and never asked to drive again. Problem solved.
My wife loves driving my car, funny to see a little 5'6 110lb girl driving a huge cammed , dumped , on skinnies and M/T out back Camaro! Guys go crazy if I am not in it with her, lol! She also understands that I would be devastated if something where to happen to either so she is pretty mellow in it!
