Message Look over in FAQ ( I think it's there ) where you find best shift points. I never take first threw third that high, you can feel the car slowing. I shift all three of them gears around 4500 to 5k, and I never let off the gas pedal. That's the key and hard part for most. A normal reaction is to lift your gas pedal foot, shift, press gas. See that's where Auto's win and do better, for that's really the same thing. By not lifting that foot, you'll maintain boost. But it's hard on your tranny sync's.

And yes your right about the gas deal. Real life is cool, but seeing what the car can do at it's best is a mark I like best and when I goto the track, I don't go looking for avg. or so-so marks, Nor would I show up to a dyno pull on straight pump gas..... this is just me. :)

STAGE V++++
Going to XIII and beyond :)
