: I am a newbie standard driver. I am afraid I am hurting the car in the first few weeks.

: 1. From 2nd I went to 1st by mistake. Car screeched to a halt. This happedn twice in last two weeks.

: 2. In 2nd, clutch and break down, I released cutch. Car screeched again but briefely. Happned once.

: In both cases RPM was about 4500. The car is just awsome and will hate to lose it.
