Well, I'm new to the world of 5 speed but I have a couple of questions regarding shifting:
1) I am shifting pretty easy at this early stage but I do notice myself going much slower compared to other cars (auto). So I try to shift faster on a few occasions, but shifting fast on 1st and 2nd gear is v. hard. The shifter need to be tug quite hard to move between those gears - frankly, more than I'm comfortable with. Is that normal? (The quick shifting among the rest is ok)
2) I notice a small quick jerk when I let go of my clutch after going to a new gear. Is that because I release the clutch too fast still? I thought I am pretty smooth with its release by now. Do I have to give gas immediately to obtain smooth shifts? I find it almost as if that helps!
