    I think thats normal. when I was there a few years ago we started with 45 and ended up with like 15 or so. Some just goof off, some just can't drive or both. Some fail the physical or the testing.

    Or TMC finds out you lied about something. Most are just people there who don't take it serious and people who end up not being able to drive to there standards to pass you. If you need to you can stay after and practice backing and everything everyday.

    Oh and don't freak out because of the 13 speed. Its simple but I also went in to TMC having driven almost all single stick transmissions.

    did a little 13 training on sim at school, but my instructors keep saying you dont need to split until you get 8 or maybe 7 is that the case while training or do they want you to split all? Im sure ill do fine but man them are some pretty big cut numbers..

    They want you to do them all. When your loaded you split them all. Makes a huge difference.

    Actually that name does sound real familiar. I left the stumps in early '09 so its been a while since I've heard from anyone out that way.
