    Ripping? You seem nervous and short-shifting the whole time. More like cruising.

    Nice car, I also own one. Now the thing is to be relax, smooth driving. You look stressed out, keep the hands on the wheel and when you are about to shift then take one hand to the stick. You look undecided to shift or not to shift. Keep pushing and practice. You have a great car to carve curves.👍👍👍
