Is it possible, say if you were doing 55 in 9th & dropped down to 25mph, can you drop your splitter, shift into neutral, & throw it into 5th?
It might go, you'll just have to try it.

I barely touch the clutch pedal once I get rollling, but to each his own.

I do hear some drivers jump off the throttle so teh jake comes on and then they bang it into the next gear, it sounds cool, but in the long run, your hammering the rearend out of it.

Just take your time shifting.

I wish the truck I'm getting had a 13 or 18 in it but for the price I'm getting this truck at, I'll get by with the Super 10.
