The only shifting I do is on a roll I put it in 2nd or 1st(depending on speed) to be in the gear I want from the start of the race after the third honk. After I go WOT I shift it to drive and let shift itself the rest of the way. Same at the track go into 1st gear for burnout up to the line, then launch in 1st gear and shift to Drive as soon as I'm moving. I've tried shifting on the street it doesnt work all I do is hit the rev limiter. I let the car shift itself.

Ive tried shifting mine and never got positive results.The shifter(stock) is not responsive enough to make quick gear changes ,especially on the junk. If your gonna try it, shift about 200-250 RPMs early till you get the hang of it.
