Drag
Switching gears (1-2, 2-3 etc) Do you guys hold down the accelerator while switching to keep the RPMS close to red-line?? How bad is this on the clutch/tranny? How do I keep the RPMS from going into the red (or is it just letting off the gas a touch)

powershift...not great for your tranny obviously but holding down the accelerator that much while shifting will burn your clutch out so fast.

DO NOT POWER SHIFT.ps is a really bad idea trust me i know first hand.it wears ur clutch down 30% faster than normal shifting.i would only do it if it was a tight race and neither u or the other guy/girl is pulling away.
