well being stuck (for now) with an automatic chevy cavalier...
and driving it ghetto manual, I do drive it with 2 feet...
brake pedal really higherm thAN gAS so when I brake and "downshift" I brake with left and Blip the gas (usuallY) in between auto gear shifts, about a .5 sec window...
It's lame I know, but it's the only way for me to enjoy driving automatic...
I try not doing it, bit I find it's just a bore driving auto..
