    in the lower gears on the SRiT the rev limiter kicks in and the pedal falls flat with no response. Scared the cr*p outta me the first time this happened :?

    I only do it from 1-2 and 3-4 when i'm really pushing it.
    Usually just do it from 3-4.

    Anyone noticed any advantages of doing this or not really. I personally only notice a really small difference, thats about it.

    I used to do in the SRi, But It FCUKED the Synchro's on 2nd and 3rd. So after a while it sound like a Dog Box(Straight Cut Gears).

    Flat shifting; is that where you put the clutch in but keep the accellerator down?
