Good advice for manual noobs, like myself, even though a lot of it was kind of common sense if you have any mechanical knowledge at all. Thanks for the post!

I always have my hand on the shifter. Never caused problems.

Most points are valid here, but I agree with the others about hand resting on the shifter. Unless you're physically pushing in, the weight of a hand will not matter.

I drive like a race car driver so my hand is only on the shifter when I'm shifting.
