What gear do you miss the most - Page 2 - HondaClub.com

I tend not to miss any of the gears while I'm running through them full bore, but I do tend to skip fourth while doing my daily driving just to try and save a little fuel.

When I started driving stick, I used to miss 3rd by going into 1st and causing a massive redline. Also I would get stuck in 4th because of trying to get 5th. Right now I don't miss any shifts even though it is getting kind of hard to get on 3rd, because it gets kinda stuck.

I rairlly miss any gears but I mised 3rd at the strip twice but it was my short shifters fault. The bushings were to gone and there was to much flop. Fixed now.

2nd sometimes when I'm racing, have a bad habit of cupping the shift knob from the side so when I go to pull down to 2nd my hand just slips completlely off the shifter

Yeah, 3rd for me, but luckily I usually put it into 5th so I'm not blowing my engine. Can't wait for poly shifter bushings for more precise feel.
