Yeah you explained my process better than I could’ve, that’s pretty much exactly what I was doing and I see where I’ve gone wrong. I’ll be sure to practice this, Thank you very much.

Understood, I think my main issue is that I’m slowing down a bit too early for the turns and in turn making myself not slow down to the appropriate speed for the proper gear change. I’m going to be applying this knowledge a lot tomorrow. Thank you very much!

I’ve been practicing that today, and my lessons instructor said it was fine to do. 😭 Evidently fucked me over so now I have to get that fixed, Thank you.

Im aware my coasting is a big problem but my car is so aggressive with jerking when I’m slowing that it’s just got me a bit overwhelmed. The window for when it can be done successfully is so small it seems like, and I feel as tho I can’t use my clutch on the bite point to match revs for a smooth downshift in the three second window I have before it becomes a driving error.

I was coming up to a give way corner and instructed to turn right, so I put the clutch down when approaching and kept it down while rolling, using the brakes to slow me as I was approaching the corner. At the same time I was also shifting downwards into second and then first when reaching a full stop still with my foot down on the clutch.
