The way I look at it is the transmission isn't "supposed" to grind. If it is, that's a problem. There's a difference between notchy and grinding, too. If it's grinding you should get it looked at.

That would be cool to get a group together to do that. Everyone will just have to be good doing an all-day thing. Good direction, though. The times I've done it, it's best going from West to East.
