Not you mane...i was referring to fa22raptor. And the reason I'm having a hard time getting it into gear....is b/c of a slipping clutch...not my shifting abilities. And why would you assume I "beat on my car" b/c I "modded it so thoroughly"? What does that even mean. Yes I've modified my car heavily and YES I drive it hard, aggressive, and in a performance way...I don't just redline dump the clutch or anything stupid like that. It's a performance car...I drive it the way it's supposed to be. You should never assume someone drives their car like a retard just b/c it's a heavily modified performance car.LHOswald wrote:i brought your shifting up because you said you had a hard time getting it into gear. i figured you were just beating on it since you modded it so thoroughly. didn't mean any disrespect, and i wasn't trying to dis your driving ability. was just trying to point out a fact that i wasn't sure if you were aware of or notmesaboogie18 wrote:And why is my shifting even being brought up??!!?? Seriously, I mentioned ONCE that I forced it into 2nd gear from 1st....b/c I needed to go. I don't do it ever shift and ever since my car started acting up, I've been taking it easy on her. I shift at 3k RPMs max now and it shifts just fine. I appreciate the input but not the judgement of how I'm driving.
And once again I DO NOT need a lecture on when to downshift fa22raptor. You can't seriously be telling me that I should downshift to go into my powerband...duh. Once again this isn't my first time at the rodeo with a standard shift car.
Where are the peeps that have actually been on this forum for a while? (Watkins, Athoxa, holycow, and Bawked...thanks for the input/advice guys, I'm not excluding you all) B/c those are the people that I want to hear from...the ones that will be helpful and not try to talk to me like I'm some newb who just bought a stick and can't drive for shit. If you don't have something constructive to say on this thread, then post somewhere else. The end.
