Have patience and take your time getting adjusted to your Camaro and it will be second nature to you when driving and enjoying the SS.��

Right on.

Keep in mind though OP, driving a manual is inherently going to be different than an automatic. Not every shift is going to be perfect, and when you're really into the gas clutching in and out fast it's gonna throw you back and feel a lot different than an auto does under WOT. I always say that a stick can even make a slow car feel faster, just my opinion. Keep practicing and don't go nuts striving for expert level shifts, because eventually that will come without even knowing it.

Do experienced drivers also use Rev Match?
