The other day I'm sitting at a light and with no one ahead of me, I decide to get on it a bit in manumatic mode. Only problem is I forget to move the shifter over and as I bump the shift lever up, I bump it right into neutral and get to hear the car rev like crazy!! Doh! I felt like a total dumb S*** and look over just in time to see a couple people who were walking just looking over at me probably thinking "what an idiot, he can't even shift"! Guess I was too smart to look down the tach at the "1" or "D"... Am I the only brain surgeon on the board?

happens to me sometimes...im almost always in manual "mode" but when i get on the cell phone i go into drive

I need the T-Shirt too, I did it the other day and was pissed, easy thing to do. With a wide open exhaust and blower pretty much everyone hears it happen lol.

 

Yep, got one here as well.

 

I might as well join the club for "manumatic on the mind, but not on the shifter"

yeah, just like above... I'll change it to "D" when I'm on the cell phone and then forget about it and ram it into neutral (and hit 6K rpm's in no time flat!) I've done it like twice, and it scared the **** out of me both times!

 

Dont feel bad...I did it at the track...In front of 1,000 people...Didnt even stop to get my time slip. No thats BAD !!!!!!!

 

this is a funny thread.....i did it again today (sorta)

i was waiting for a train that musta taken 20 min to pass....tons of cars waiting

i was in Park and i wanted to step on the brake to switch out....i slammed on the gas instead and embarrased myself....i felt like a ricer for a minute

 

It happen to me too.

 

im in the club. dont do it too often but every once and a while it happens.

 

Well i did some thing even funnier at the track last night . I went around the water and backed up ....was waiting for them to mop up the track...when they were done... I forgot to put it in drive and tried to do a burn out in reverse
