Just got my permit today :)
 
So, today i got my permit and i can offically drive now(with a person 21 years or older tho and has a license for more than one year, BUMMER). Anyways, the test was so easy and i'm just letting you guys know. I have a manual transmission and its so fun. They should only make manual cars. Now i can drive, YES :D.

rxtasy3 10-24-06 12:06 AM

yeah, congrats. but i'd suggest doing the driving test in an automatic unless u REALLY, REALLY know what NOT to do with a manual during the test.

This was one of the hardest things I've ever tried to comprehend.

And congrats on the permit. I've had my license for six years now. Way to make me feel old when I'm not even close to it.

Siraniko 10-24-06 11:58 AM

Congrats!!! Must be as old as my boy who got his permit recently. He is tired of my stock FB which he is using for practice. Now he wants to drive his charcoal gray FB with streetport/gears along with my RX-3. :MissileSm

Congrats. I learned to drive on my GSL, all Ive got to say is, watch out for the rain! with the LSD itll step out with a quickness. Just going around corners at normal speeds will put you sideways in the wet, especially if you hit a paint stripe or something. WEEEEEEEE!

jaydun323 10-24-06 12:05 PM

I consider myself priviledged i did my driving test in my uncles 900 hp 55 chevy beleair with a six speed manual. When i crunk up the car i thought the man that gave me the test was going to nut himself but needless to say i passed with no problem. Oh and i should the guy the fastest 0 to 60 he had ever seen

Get wider, grippier tires. I still lose traction, but not half as much, and mainly only when I am trying to.

Actually I took off my 14's and am running the stock 13's for now. So I am sliding everywhere in the rain again.

twinkletoes 10-24-06 12:45 PM

Thanks guys. I think i'll take the test if i'm confident tho in my 7. Hopefully i get somebody really nice for the test.

FirebirdSlayer666 10-24-06 12:49 PM

I took my driving test in an auto as well. I just idled around the course, never even touched the accelerator. Congrats. Now you hae to work on getting your liscense and you'll be set. I have an open diff in my S and it'll still kick the ass end out in the rain if you aren't careful

twinkletoes 10-24-06 12:54 PM

Ya. The LSD is very useful. My friend has a 84 GS and he always makes the rear end loose just for fun. He says mine is way more fun and easier to control.

damn your lucky my dad gets pissed if i sit in his miata's drivers seat hell never let me drive that car even though i can drive a stick. but when i get my 7 hell have to ride shot gun b/c im the only one that can drive that car :pokeowned :bigok:

twinkletoes 10-24-06 02:34 PM

Ya^. I don't want anybody driving my car except me when i get my license. I'll let my dad and 1 or 2 other people, but thats it.

twinkletoes 10-24-06 02:51 PM

Is there anybody else who is 15 or 16 on here?

I know, but the course was really small and I passed without a single point taken off LOL

clbsinvaders 10-24-06 08:46 PM

I'm 17, only had a stick (a honda, yes, but the good one, the Accord :) ) and I'll only drive that. Fun or as boring as you'd like. The test in ohio sucks...pull through cones, then pull back, all while steering...hard when you're only 16, but i could easily do it now. Just keep it slow, and simple. Then let the fun come after you get your liscense :Kill1:

twinkletoes 10-25-06 01:07 AM

I know, i can't wait for my license. I'll be able to drive on my own. YES :)
