Mis-shifting happens because you are thinking about shifting into the next gear. Don't think, just do it. I think that my syncro is bad or my clutch is garbage. My 1-2 in the Cobalt is kind of tough and "locks" me out very often. In my Civic's I just rip it into a gear. The less you think about it, the better you get

I don't like putting myself on a high horse either but I'm a really good driver too. I try to treat the Cobalt better than my other car because it is more expensive to fix. I hope that my clutch holds better than it did before

There's a select few on this site that have proven they can drive and you are one of them. Your time slip proves it. I hope to make my time slip prove it too. I just need the slicks. I'm annoyed with these 2.2 60'ers. I bang every gear but I need to launch better. Problem is that the closest track to us is 2 hours away.

I was trying to see if it would build boost like a turbocharged car but it looks like it loses boost. Could that be why it gains traction? I was watching a lot of HatrickStu's videos and he doesn't fight for traction like most of us.

I understand the concepts and how it works. I just don't see how a limiter can actually net you a better 60'. I know that using one on a turbocharged vehicle does really well. I'd like to see a comparison with a supercharged vehicle with no other modifications done but a wot box.
I won't be at 350 HP. I'd be lucky to see close to 300 WHP with what I've done. I know that my tuner has run a 13.0 @ 111 MPH with 273 WHP and 26xWTRQ.
I've given up with wanting to hit 11's and make this car into a drag car. It costs too much and you get nothing back from it.
I'm hoping that on a set of slicks I will personally be able to get a 1.8 60', I know it possible. If I manage to do that then I will be able to see a solid 12.7ish.
