Heyo!
Hey all I'm Steven. Found this site a long time ago but never got around to posting/introducing myself til now. I'm 17 and I own a 2007 Ford Focus SES, 5 speed. Ive been driving stick for 5 years now. My Dad taught me how to drive a standard transmisson on his 1999 SVT Cobra that we had to sell recently that thing was an absolute monster. Lately ive been getting the hang of DCHT; my pedals arnt perfect for it but its still fun as hell. I'l put get some flicks of the focus soon!

Re: Heyo!
welcome to the site. im the resident double clutcher. im sure going from a cobra to a focus must take some getting used to, but as long as its stick, you can't go wrong. why did you have to sell the cobra? financial reasons? and he let you drive that thing when you were 12? i don't think i could even push a clutch a clutch pedal and look over the steering wheel at the same time when i was 12

Greetinage. I am the resident divine/perforated bovine.
My cats do not eat your fine cat food. They might like it, but right now they eat Purina One. Why do they eat first-class food and I eat the most generic stuff I can get?
