Kind of pivot betweent the two. After you've mastered being able to 'rock'
the car back and forth on a hill you can practice driving your standard
transmission car without using your clutch. that does take a bit more skill
still. I'm not kidding either. As a young lad (and poor) I drove my father
in law's type 3 Karman Ghia well over a couple hundred km including city
driving and a ferry by doing just that. Admittedly I was a bit sweaty after
that.... but I had to have that Ghia.

Sorry, Guenter, but you should not encourage normal drivers to use this
