1. Understanding the Basic Controls
Clutch Pedal (Left): Used to engage and disengage the engine from the wheels.
Brake Pedal (Middle): Used to slow down or stop the car.
Accelerator (Race Pedal) (Right): Increases engine power and speed.
Gear Lever: Used to change gears for different speeds and torque.
2. Starting the Car
Press the clutch pedal fully with your left foot.
Shift to 1st gear using the gear lever.
Slowly release the clutch while gently pressing the accelerator (race pedal).
3. Gear Shifting (Upshifting: 1st to 5th Gear)
1st to 2nd Gear:
Release accelerator slightly.
Press clutch fully and shift to 2nd gear.
Slowly release the clutch and apply a little acceleration.
2nd to 3rd Gear:
Press clutch, shift to 3rd gear, and smoothly release the clutch while accelerating.
3rd to 4th Gear & 4th to 5th Gear:
Follow the same process: Clutch → Shift Gear → Release Clutch → Accelerate.
4. Gear Downshifting (5th to 1st Gear)
Reduce speed using the brake.
Press the clutch and shift to a lower gear (e.g., 5th to 4th, 4th to 3rd, etc.).
Release the clutch gradually and maintain acceleration as needed.
5. Stopping the Car
Reduce speed by pressing the brake pedal.
Press the clutch fully before stopping to prevent stalling.
Shift to neutral and release the clutch.
6. Key Tips for Smooth Driving
Do not ride the clutch (avoid keeping your foot on the clutch when not shifting).
Match RPM with gear speed to prevent jerks.
Use correct gear for speed (e.g., don’t use 5th gear at low speed).
Practice clutch control to avoid sudden starts or stalls.
