Just don't get bent out of shape when it happens and you will be a pro in no time. There is no huge mystery or special skill required just practice.
At the moment I just need to master down shifting smoothly, but I guess practice makes perfect

However, the 86/FR-s feels like absolute sex around declined or inclined corners & apexes, I'm in love with this car and I'll spend mornings drinking tea and just looking the aesthetics haha

I may be a bit crazy, but I guess thats why we are "petrol heads"
