Nice kills. So your car is an a4? You manually switch gears? I heard that might not be good for the trans?
Anyway, good kills.

It's bad to manually shift....as in around the redline. But it's ok to manually place it in a gear and then put it back into OD after you go. Won't mess up the shifting or anything
