smoothly, I mean more than 80% of shifts are as they are planned and don't arrive by slipping the clutch a little too much or whatever. I seem to slip the clutch when I give it some gas in the lower gears if I don't let oit the clutch super fast. Then I clunk it occasionally. It's a PITA!

I think you constantly have to focus on shifting if you want to shift smoothly in this car. . .

Default Only when I try to powershift. I cant control where i want the tach to be. The needle climbs too
fast for me to catch it.

Default the only gear I see as a problem is second and if you shift at low or high rpms its no problem. Now
that it is colder out I do notice she needs more gas out of first than when she's warm.

IMHO, clutch uptake is too long - one reason I decided on a Tip...
