LOL - I learned stick on my very first car in high school. An old $900 1982 Toyota Supra aka "The Batmobile" - because of the flip up lights.. looked like the delorian too.

I knew how to drive, but not stick - bought the car from a friend of family. After 2 days of waiting for my friend to show up, I just hopped in my car and went around the neighbourhood all day. I knew the concept, jus needed practice. Had it within a few hrs. The hardest part is getting out of first or if u end up stopped on a hill. Which always seemed to happen LOL. Recently had a 97 Saab before the X that was stick - manual is hell here in NYC.

My uncle can drive stick without the clutch.. had to when clutch went on me downtown in a parking garage. He drove it all the way back to queens.
