come down to Va Beach and I will. who knows, maybe ill go back to my buddies house in philly one day. but learning on my car would be a biatch! i have the clutch i mentioned to not learn on. it is FAR from stock. but if you learn on that, you will be able to deal with any clutch. Turbo Sam used to have the exact clutch that is in my car. he would tell people that if they can drive off without either stalling it or spinning the tires that they could take it for a joy ride. never did he see his car roll away.
