Apparently, this kid had a POS short throw shifter that caused a couple mis-shifts. I bet he doesn't let that happen again.

I did a 3-2 mis-shift in my Subaru last week (I'd say there are sloppy shifter bushings on there, but that would mean there were any at all) and I got right back on the clutch without even thinking of it. I was shifting hard, too, so he doesn't have that excuse. Inexperience is his only out...well, or stupidity.

The car sounded weird afterwards...like a weedwacker! Before it had a nice electric lawnmower sound to it...
