why is he blipping the throttle to upshift when he should be letting the revs die to match the cogs. He’d never have got thro’ a Class 1 test in Blighty with a Fuller 'box in our day! lol. Robert
There is some method to that madness Robert at least on the flat.Just like matching the revs when you’ve shifted into neutral as part of a clutchless/floated upshift.Or possibly even having missed a shift,leaving the choice then of either re match the engine road speed perfectly or stop and start again.IE it’s just a method of rematching the engine speed if the revs have fallen below the road speed during an upshift.
Well yes, of course: all of us who drove constant-mesh 'boxes understand that! And I did it when necessary. Italians did it all the time though. I remember listening in amazement to the their progress up from Dover through Kent in the old days! Robert
