How fast do you shift?
Had a friend at the house doing some work on a car, we went to get some food, I did a little pull and he was saying I shift pretty fast lol. So we got it on camera. Small little pull.

nice vid man haha. 2nd to 3rd is the toughest one to get too haha. all my buddies are like how can you shift so quick from 2nd to 3rd i said takes a lot of practice and then once you get it down try and go faster haha the fun part though is rolling at 40mph and she spins then trying not to hit rev and still hold boost all the same time so you dont fall off

What do you mean let the clutch out quicker? The shift was completed in less then 50 ms. And never let off the gas pedal lol.

he never lifts man haha all he does is pushes the clutch in and shifts so the only way i think your shifting that fast is if your not using the clutch and banging gears

Hard to tell without seeing the hands man. I really don't think it can be done any faster then I can do it.

Is it only me but I think 2nd to 3rd is the easiest besides 3rd to 4th...

All you have to do is pop out of 2nd then your shifter automatically goes below 3rd and all you have to do is push up.... Literally if you only have to push up, obviously a quick pause so the shifter moves over... But still Lol

Guess its only me.

1->2 in the cobalt is embarrassing leaving a light the guy behind me always almost rear ends me as I'm waiting for the revs to drop before letting the clutch out to 2

the rest are all fine though

Haha I thought I was the only one. Sometimes I get it right and it feels so good. You need to be accelerating at a decent pace though.

2-3 is the easiest shift ever. I **** up 1-2 more often. BPS shifter needs adjusting too. NLS is great but I should really use it less.
