Don't listen to someone saying you haven't driven stick till you rev match. Ask them how you've been able to get to work every day for the last 10 years without "rev matching" :rolleyes:
I'm a new MT driver as well and learning on my 06 civic.
I've been driving for 1 week or so now and drive pretty smooth now all except when I slow down for a curve. So back to the scenario, if I'm in 4th and approaching a turn, I usually clutch, shift to 2nd, and brake. After making the turn, I slowly let the clutch out while apply some gas (similar to how I start) and everytime I do this the car jerks a bit. Does this have anythign to do with rev matching? I've tried letting the clutch out at different speeds but still feel some jerkiness.
