Wait...you use first gear? That's totally for n00bs. if you can't start off in sixth you might as well have an auto.

That's for sissies. Real men double dutch when they shift.


Note the flat brims and backwards caps. I rest my case.

well i believe it would be number of gears plus half-gears to the power of 3 (or gears + halfgears cubed)


so 6, plus 6 more half gears, multiplied by each of the clutches....1,728

I particularly like how he takes both hands off the wheel to shift. What could possibly go wrong?

I don't believe the top picture (video) goes along with the bottom picture.

I believe the top picture (video) is a 13 speed with a 2 stick conversion.
