Default Re: Teaching my 15YO to drive my A

I have taught many youngsters and some not so "youngsters" how to drive a stick in my "A". The Model A is the easiest to learn on because for a beginner there is no worry about the coordination of throttle and clutch movement as is required on modern vehicles. Just set the throttle at a slightly faster idle and let the big flywheel do it's thing, all the way through the three gears. Work on foot throttle control after learning clutch control.
