Freightrain Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Yup........that'd be me doing the shifting show. It started out on a private server, someone(ok lots of people) have saved it and then posted it on YouTube. I did the one handed version about 3 yrs ago, then the next year I did the two handed.

RRJordan Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Thanks. When it's done right the left foot gets just a little more use than it would with an auto! In the old days before power steering, the first warning was: Don't even put your thumbs inside the wheel. It was a brave man on a smooth road who reached through for the second stick.

Freightrain Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Ya, gotta realize what/where you're at before shifting thru the wheel, cause it can come back and hurt ya! Especially since I don't have a big enough belly to hold it in place LOL!!! Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
