Why do you take your foot off the gas when racing???&nbsp; It slows you down.&nbsp; You don't need NLTS (no lift to shift) either.&nbsp; Just shift quicker.
Damn newbies! :P That is called speed shifting. That is much different that no lift to shift. The no lift to shift is a 2nd rev limiter. If you shift at 7500 then you set the NLTS at 6000 (or where ever your next shift comes out at) This will make it easier on the tranny because the engine will be closer to the right RPM when you shift.

Speed shifting is hard on synchros and shift forks. [/b][/quote]
Yeah, I am a ricer and a newbie. I have a MSD-DIS2. I know what the fuck NLTS is. Personally, it slows me down that way. I am fine doing it as I plan on rebuilding my tranny soon anyhow. On the 16g, I needed all the help I could to go fast with my slipping clutch.
