Level 3
High-Power Vehicle Training
- Perfect for: Vehicles over 250 Horsepower
- Level 3 is where you get prepared for the power and sensitivity of sports cars and heavy duty trucks. The basic mechanics of a 250+ vehicle are the same, but the big difference is in pedal control. You’re going to need precise shifting, rev matching, and power management so that you protect your clutch when getting the lead out. But even more important is managing all of that power at low speeds. Feathering into a parking spot can be tricky when you have a massively powerful engine under the hood. Your instructor will pay extra attention to pedal control, focusing on toe heel and feathering the clutch so that you maintain smooth and steady control at low speeds. The last thing you want to do is accidentally lurch forward and scratch your bumper.
- NOTE: This lesson is usually taught with a vehicle that has LESS than 250 horsepower. The core focus of this course is repetition and practice of the maneuvers that are difficult for new stick shift drivers if they drive a powerful sports car AFTER the lesson. Learning these skills does NOT require use of a powerful car.

Hi, I'm Najib.
Rowing your own gears puts you more in sync with your car! You always know what gear your are in and is way more engaging than driving an automatic. Not to mention more fun. Few things beat the thrill of taking an engine to redline and confidently putting it into the next gear. I have taught my mother, sisters, girlfriend, and a few friends. I taught my family so that they were able to drive my vehicle or any other manual if need be. I want more people to drive manuals so that car manufacturers keep making them. I’m an engineering student, and I have had to teach math or other concepts to fellow classmates. I’m inspired to teach because you teach something means you’ve truly mastered it. |
