i get a grind occasionally when i am ripping through first to second gear, its kinda as if the synchros arent fast enough to catch up with my shift. all i know is i dont like that feeling and i try to avoid it if possible. i know i shift fast, but i wanna know how you guys at the track avoid the same thing. this car only has 14oo miles on it so far???

however, if the gears are pressed together... u greatly reduce the chance of slippage.... so it's not that u are shifting too fast... it's ur shifting incorrectly

haha, sry bout the title and stealing ur name... i use this name on tristatetuners too so i just used it here too... i never had a grinding issue going into 2nd but ive accidentally ground 3rd 2 or 3 times. i took my car to the dealer cuz of the loud throwout assembly and they put a new bearing and release assembly in for free but it turns out it is supposed to make that humming noise apparently.
