Default POLL: How often do you shift smoothly?

When you're out driving, how often do you shift completely smoothly where passengers wouldnt even be able to tell you did shift. Another words, no jerking, stalling, or roughness.

Usually around half of the time I'm driving I shift pretty smoothly.

Probably 3/4 of the time. Otherwise, i'm doing it because it's fun and on purpose. Can't remember the last time I stalled.

Depends if I'm trying to. I've got it to the point that when trying, I'm smoother than an automatic...



When I have fun though...

I'm ABLE to all the time, such as when my wife is in the car. When I'm on my own though, it really depends. Most of the time I do, but you tend to feel the shift a bit more when powershifting

With my car...the only time I start to shift smoothly (notsoquick/fun) is when I see the passengers head moving way too much. don't shoot me haha
