"notchy/crunchy" – that's exactly it! – good description. And I do mostly notice it on the 1-2 shift.
So that would mean be in first, clutch-in, neutral, clutch-out, small rev, clutch-in, second? I guess I don't really understand "double clutching." I always thought double clutching was what I had to do for my old truck – I have to shift into second for a sec before it wants to go into reverse (was like that when it was handed down – I don't think I messed the tranny up my self)
Thanks for the replies.
That indeed is double-clutching, or at least what I am referring to.
This is certainly not the normal application of the tecnique, but it works for me. The throttle blip will help smooth out the shift too.
