Hi Ryan!

What does lol all over the road mean? What are cages that got too close?
What does " When the window's started to fog up, I really started to picker"
mean?
It almost sounds like a code.

Yeah, it' tends to want to just lol all over the
road. IT was a bit nerve racking in downtown
traffic. One or two cages tried to wander up
close. When the window's started to fog up, I
really started to picker

But I got through it with out crushing any cages.

I will say, double clutching seems to help a great deal with shifting.
