Ran the 1/4 mile a few times last night. I suck, shifted from 3rd to 6th my first pass. That was the only good launch, the blew the launch the other 2 passes.

pro_350Z was in the outside lane and beat me every time. I would have got him on the first pass if i shifted into 4th.

I'm sure you mean some other gear combo? 2nd to 6th would be even more bizarre
*edit: now i read it again, sorry... still, 2nd or 6th would require actually pushing left or right, 4th is straight down, 3rd to 4th is quite literally the *easiest* gear change you'll ever do

Weird
After-market ****? **** at wrong angle maybe? I know i was a little weirded out by the last two RWD gearboxes, in that first to second is/was what feels like a straight pull, rather than preferenced towards the left. That one change has made my 1st-2nd shifting, even when cold, so much smoother, i've just got to get my confidence up so i can do it faster without fear of grinding.

Tried shoving pieces of new S15 kit into the boot of my Z to transport it but nothing fit so we had to shove everything into the hilux, took a bit of logic to fit everything in

Still fun for a night, getting out and getting to drive my car. It's been in the garage broke for a while.

Yup, and I just can't seem to get in the zone yet while driving a car. Figure it will probably happen a while after I go W2W racing. Sportbikes, when I raced them, I just slipped into the grove and could just run perfect laps, even while going by lapped traffic.
