:yeahthat:
BUT. Was the instructor that bad and is the OP's driving really that bad?
Oh yes its funny and I'd love to see the instructor getting slapped.
On the other hand, I have no worries revving an engine, can always find its sweet spot for gear shifts and as I match the revs a dodgy clutch can collapse before I notice. Bikes dont have synchro and you really notice if the engine isnt running at its best speed.
you've gotta love the mk1 punto for it's long 3rd gear 15-65mph:slayer:
Having said that, i don't normally go past 50mph in 3rd
28mpg suggests its an HGT or the lambda needs checking out.
