    Depends on how fast your background and how many instructrors are in the yard. Also depends on how many loads area available when your instructor is ready to leave. Should be Saturday or Sunday though.

    That's right. Sat or sun. A lot of the times the instructors like to give you some pad practice and shifting practice before you get out the. Cause when you do get out there, it is all about what you practice. Good luck and be careful.

    o
    Its not if they like to give you some shifting practice, it is company policy that you are required to receive a min of 4 hours of shifting practice before you head out on the big road.....

    It'll probably take awhile to get good at shifting. Just be patient n keep practicing
