Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

nothing, thats why his went right into first gear at speed.

I'll bet the OP was doing a 2-3 powershift, the higher revs will allow jumping into first easy. Atleast we know he HAD a good tranny, dunno about it now.

not having a dumbshit driver with no hand-eye coordination.


i never understand misshifts.....ive never misshifted whether it being racing, hard-driving, or just daily driving.....i can understand a little grind everynow and then. but come one. how do you go that far out of place.......


either you people suck...or im just that much better than everyone else :-\

Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

I've only misshifted once and that was learning how to shift and going 2nd to 5th... lol.

Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

Call it all you want. I'm sure if I went to a drag strip I would've done it by now, but in my every day hard driving and ------- with punks that say "You better go pick on a Sentra" when I tell them all I have is a little single cam I haven't done it.

Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

I've done a 2-1 missed shift, but didn't let the clutch out, just wore the brass a little.

But then again I used to do 2-1 downshifts without the clutch when autoxing.

Under threshold braking, knock it out of second, holld gas to the floor whille applying presure to 1st gear, pops in and power thru the corner, get pointed straight and slam it back into second.

I hurt a few shifter forks doing that, but I won the points race for the year in my class.

Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

my 5th gear is stupid hard to get in at times, 4-5 ihas been 4-3 a few times, luckily on the highway doing speeds in 3rd gear range. Im gonna switch to that synchromesh ---- in my trans cause 10-30 is shitty, my 3rd just started catching on hard up shifts and reverse can be a ass sometimes.

Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

your about to be owned by bearings, there is no cure except to rebuild.............

I wish it was that easy with your mindset.........but dipshits will always be 1 quart low.

Re: 1st gear at 55mph. :(
 

i accidentally popped it into 2nd instead of 5th on yuriys turbo ls

it made sex sounds for the couple seconds it was in there lol

i think it was 9k? idk he was drunk and i had a little to drink but not enough to blow anything but im retarded enough that i dont need alcohol in me to miss a shift
