especially when double clicking on the paddle and going straight to 3rd from 1st   :embarassed:,

....I did that once - Not on The Pod but just going for fast overtake. I shan't make that mistake again! Even with plenty of torque it doesn't help you get there quickly.

We learn by our mistakes :afro:

Cant say I have ever made that mistake :rolleyes: :grin:
Only grinded the gears though R32uk  :evil:

Takes a bit more skill than clicking a paddle...  but I think I got it down to a 'T' :wink:

So you've never:-

Fluffed a gear change and ground the gears
Missed a gear by going into 5th instead of 3rd etc
Misjudged a bite point on a hill and stalled it
Underrevved and stalled it
Overrevved in reverse and had that lovely burned clutch smell

And be honest now :wink:

Dont remember saying I have 'never' but im an honest guy..

Fluffed a change.. yes however this was when the car was new.. and not since
Missed a gear/gone into a wrong gear... nope afraid not
Never stalled on a hill... I dont encounter many of these tbh but when i do I got the CC spot on.. any hill!
Never under revved... thats the beauty of a V6, you dont often under rev
And never in reverse either

Its all been done in my lovelly citroen from a few years back... but i have been driving long enough to not make errors like that anymore :smug:

p.s. Could this be confessions of a DSG driver :lipsrsealed: :tongue:

Been working O/T to pay for the BatCave mate, but still been reading up most days. Thai green curry with basmati rice for tea.

Is this another one of "those" Remapped ED30 threads then... :rolleyes:

Apologies for going off thread, only posted to say hi to TC. You guys get back to your incredulous boasting topic  :wink: :wink: :wink:

They didnt say it went from 3rd to 1st. Red was talking about clicking twice when changing up. i.e. 3rd to 5th instead of 3rd to 4th.

Custard pie straight back at you :grin:
