I love manuals and I grew up on them but the manual is dead. Might as well teach them how to rewind a VCR, read pager codes, or use a rotary phone. It's a waste of time and resources. Instead of spending hours teaching them manual, teach them how to be good drivers. Teach them that the fast lane is for passing only, how to be respectful of other drivers, etc. I'd rather they know those things then how to downshift rev match heel toe etc.
