All of us will be delivered in short order! This is just a preview of things to come; for all of us!

Oh, dude, I don't feel like it's gloating at all. I actually want everyone to post a gajillion pics of their cars here. I love seeing these things, and it would be cool to see some of the fellow 6/6/16 TPW builds finally home. So...post a bunch of pics tomorrow when you go pick it up.

As for everyone who has already picked theirs up and posted photos...POST MOAR PICS.

Went in far and didn't grab until almost completely up. What makes it even more difficult is the dead travel early in the accelerator pedal. I'm not a big fan of that. I know there are ways through the aftermarket to fix that, but I don't want to be messing with the throttle stuff. Anyway...like you said, with time it will become second nature.

I haven't stalled it yet, but I came very close on several occasions on the test drive with the salesman. I told him, "I promise I know how to drive a manual." I've been driving them for 9 years, but this clutch/gas pedal combo is going to take some getting used to.

Glad I'm not the only one. I noticed the throttle delay too and actually think that may be the bigger issue. The RPM's aren't rising as fast as I'm anticipating so by the time the clutch grabs it's basically at an idle. I've been just holding the gas pedal in drag strip style then engaging for smoother starts. What's nice, but I'm still not used to, is once you are moving you can shift by barely pushing the clutch in and out. That's shows how quickly it actually grabs.

It's amazing some of us got ours so quick yet so many are still waiting. Particularly some of you in or near Michigan. I figured they would get them first for sure.
