are you answering your own questions


When you shift from 2nd to 3rd do you leave your hand open and just push forward allowing the shifter to find center and then 3rd? I have seen people that grasp the shifter trying to force it into 3rd and have problems getting the alignment right on quick shifts.

Just a thought....
