Ronnie Sox 'Performance Tests'

I'll probably start a war here, but there is no secret to running a manual trans car. Some are born with it and others acquire it. If you have the knowledge of how the mechanics of a car works, along with the coordination to drive it, it comes down to the senses. The sound and feel that become ingrained in you over time can make you good at what you're doing. It's really becomes being "one" with the particular car your driving. A truly good driver doesn't even need a tach to get fast times with any particular car that the've had a few runs in. Ronnie had it.....the knowledge and the feel. Many others thru the years have had it too. I'd consider myself in the top 90% as far as having the given sense to get the max out of a 4spd car. Some of us just never had the desire or opportunity to get to the level of the big guys.
