Perfection.
It's a very precise machine, but not required to be as precise in most circumstance.

Taught myself to drive one of those when i was 12.
Didn't have access to the car. Just a book describing it.
2 things i didn't get 100% perfect when i did access the car was pushing the clutch peddle all the way down when trying to stop. 1.4 seconds later that habit stopped.
The other was learning how much advance was required at speed. Turns out the car was lenient than i thought.
