Well catching rev is what i call it. I think you do it too, flat foot shifting i think. I mean i dont do it every shift like you but i mean it definitely helps while under spirited driving.

Flat foot shifting is very different than blipping the throttle on upshifts…

Something is backwards there…

flat foot shifting is when you dont take your foot off the gas when you’re upshifting. what you do takes literally like 2 full seconds. the only thing you’re catching is dust in your grill when you shift like that lol

okay? :wtf :lol

what you do is disengage the clutch then floor it again before you reengage the clutch in the new gear, then you let out the clutch real fast. i dunno. it ain’t efficient though

btw :hijacked but who cares anyway :haha
