But seriously, why not, I typically shift 1-3-5-6 during normal driving anyway. Sure the shift pattern is a little weird, but I got used to it, You don't need to use ALL the gears if your car has enough torque... I mean first gear can do up to what? 50MPH? So technically, I could just do a 1-6 shift pattern and be done with it.
another thing is,ya got so much "damn grunt" throughout the band,
ya can basically eliminate first,and "pull a dead horse" in second from a dead stop ALL the time!..i do!..first is too tall anyway,and only useful for getting
underway...just sayin'
