old_s13: I live on a mounatian, and at no piont in the past 6 1/2 years has an automatic help to teach me how to drive better. letting off the gas going in to an up hill turn allowed the car to shift (in any gear selection [ shity old autos]) in to a higher gear. So when I went to accelerate out of the turn it would down shift and throw the balance of the car off (very frustrating). My wife owns an auto ford zx2 with 16" wheels and 205 40's; my dad owns a manual ford zx2 14" wheels and 195 60's. other than the wheels the cars are the same. I can cut 1 1/2 to 2 minutes of time over 14 miles off of my time in the auto with the manual. don't mind all the spelling and gramatical errors.
