I disagree. You can't look at your feet while you drive. The relationship of your feet to the pedals is not visual and you can't reproduce what you are seeing on the video when you are sitting in the car and can't see your feet. You drive by feel. You have to learn by feel.tehfade wrote:I can tell you why all the videos suck....they don't show the pedals. I think a good footbox video would help much more than what we have.
I dont wanna sound like a you know what but.

I can look at something and repeat the motions without watching myself. As, Im sure, most other people can as well. It might not be perfect, but its a start. Add written details to that and a complete learning tool can be created. Never forget that people dont all learn the same way you do. I know I would have done better at first with a footbox video as a guide to how fast to clutch in or out, for example.
