[QUOTE="lolbr, post: 3105803, member: 68664"] They use some slow old diesels for testing here. Lucky if you can get them to 60mph downhill with a tailwind. Horrible shifting, but there is a trick that makes it easy. After figuring it out, I actually like driving them. It seems they won't rev past a certain point if you aren't in a gear. So shifting to a higher gear I just never let of the gas pedal. Once I'm off the clutch in first (or second if skipping first), gas pedal goes to floor, and stays there. When I need to shift, just push clutch in, shift, let off clutch. Gas pedal still on floor. Obviously this won't work on all cars, but it does work well on some. [/QUOTE]
