Racing + Bad Shifting = Losing
Ok well i just broke in my 07' tC at 1200 miles. and i raced my friend in his Auto RSX on a 20 mph roll and he was pulling on me. Everytime i shifted into a higher gear the car felt like it jerked and slowed down. it just didn't feel right. But if i race it and do slower shifting the car throws me back into my seat and goes faster. iono i was just wondering if anyone else has the same problem. Post back.

Yeah. I let out the clutch real fast. Iono im not use to this clutch. Its soooo soft. Im shifting at like 6200 rpm. I think its the way i let the clutch go because if i do it slower then it like throws me back into my seat. I know i can beat him on a roll. I kill him on a launch like no other.

Clutch wear would be considered normal wear and tear but it shouldn't be even close to worn at 1200 miles, If you're shifting relatively slowly then you let the clutch out fast it will jerk because the rpms have to bounce back up.

It your shifting AT 6200 it sounds like you might be hitting the rev-limiter which would slow you up. Start your shift at say 600 and by the time you actually hit the clutch you will be at 6200.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe you just don't know how to drive it yet...
