Crappy phone video.
VIDEO
Actually kinda looks like an ad from when the car was originally built!
:28 seconds - there goes 1/2 the grocery money with that stab of the go pedal...
Sounds perfect Dave!

Your not supposed to lift the right foot when shifting. Keep her matted to the floor. It will be ok Trust Me.

I know
That why I dont have any manual trans vehicles any more I always forgot to let off the gas when shifting. Try a power shift in a dodge cummins under full boost. Stuff breaks badly.

If you're quick enough shifting without letting your foot up ...

I am sure Dave is working on his own wind turbine to offset the carbon emissions, or the break from beer is more than enough less methane in the air to make it a wash....

When driving OTR never used clutch when shifting after I got the rig moving either on the up or down shift, although I did grenade a clutch on a KW with a 318 Jimmy with a main and a brownie one time. It wasn't my fault, it was a new clutch taking out everything from the engine back, I hadn't changed gears for fifty miles, and I was empty dead heading to Ronan, MT to pick up a load of cattle.

There is a big difference between not using the clutch to shift and not letting off the gas for a powershift.
