If I understand correctly, in order to shift gears aggressively while maintaining smoothness, you need to wait until the speed is about 100-300 rpm higher than needed for the next gear. But why then professional racers don't wait for the required drop in revs, but rather throw in the clutch and immediately step on the gas? Do they sacrifice smoothness for the sake of time and speed?

Catching the exact rev of the next gear actually wears the least out of the clutch. Everything else is doing more wear on the clutch. So it's a nice skill to learn and keep the clutch alive as long as possible.
@ConquerDriving

That's true. But when you get it wrong, all the tiny amounts of clutch wear you have save go straight out the window as normal clutch use causes very little wear, most the wear comes from errors.

@@JayFe0 People who are slow on the onramp to highways makes me want to pop a blood vessel and if it were not for laws, go home to them and stab their tires and plug a sock wrapper around a potato into their exhaust. I'm typically at the highway speed limit 20-40 metres before the solid line ends max. I even did this right after I took my license in my first car, a old -96 with 55 hk altough it took until precisely the end of the solid line then if it was flatter ground, because of how weak the car is. But even in that old shitty car that only a grandma would drive and I only got because money does not grow on trees, I still managed it. It's far safer for everyone if you are up to speed, you can even do this in winter time, but of course you adjust your speed then and accelerate a bit slower to keep control. Other people who are absolute dirtbags are those who start breaking on the highway when then intend to turn off the exit ramp. Like no my man you can start breaking when on the exit ramp, not before it on the highway. Goddamnit! And then you have people in cars with 150-200 hk who cruise along as if it was a picknick ride or a school zone. People are afraid of speed or think they are some hero for slowing down for no real reason at all. Wankers!

@@rythefry8901 ^^^^also the clutch in and let off gas pedal timeing helps too you wanna press the clutch to the floor like lightning speed and time the gas pedal let off just right. I’d you let off gas’s too late it will hang longer if you play around with it you can get it to drop a bit quicker. Make sure you aren’t adding revs by letting off too late but too early and you get more hang. I just hold the clutch extra when casual driving and just let it accelerate naturally but when I wanna punch it I just slip it as easy as I can.

But I've been itching to learn and retest for one now that I've got the money and time---just gotta teach myself first. What I want to say is, I'm not sure if it's the drink I just had or his way of explaining, but this feels like the clearest explanation of manual driving I've ever come across.

This is exactly what I've been practicing in our 1.9 jtd diesel, since it is near impossible to consistenly hit a downshift revmatch. It really feels great, better than many automatic transmissions, when you drop the clutch within I would say 100rpm and you don't feel it at all, kinda reminds me of a cvt in a way Side note, I think the reason for the impossible downshift revmatch were stuck vanes in the turbo, which meant a very inconsistent engine response to the exact same throttle input. Did a simple diesel treatment and spray for the turbo and it's incredible how much more responsive the engine feels. Have to retrain my muscle memory and see if I can finally revmach properly :)

Great general tips, but I will admit can be different depending on the type of gearbox your car uses, sports/performance gearbox's typically require RPM even if using clutch point for a hill, slow roll before applying accelerator or they will stall. Most typically hold car still for about 2 seconds on a hill to assist the transition without using handbrake anyway but yeh. Down shifting in my car I need to tap accelerator to pop revs just over 2k before releasing clutch quickly for it to be smooth or it can stall mid downshift even if the actual revs when cruising at the current speed would be under 2k. Just gotta get the feel for your car, but also be weary of slipping the discs. If you hear any slight scraping or "shing" like a sword being pulled from scabbard (will be very quiet noise) then your car does not like the revs you are at when transitioning and will grind the plates away.

Thing is, my car holds the revs for too long in 1st and 2nd gear so I cant quite drop the clutch without it being jerky; I have to hold it down waiting for the revs to stop dropping, by which time it's pointless because it wont be a fast shift

I knew all of this but not the theory! Much appreciated, thanks for the help ! Ive been driving fast cars ever since i learned how to drive so it came to me naturally because of my curiosity i like to sit down and learn everything i can, So im glad i was right on most of this stuff! As for the clutch wear THAT IS AN AWESOME thing to know ! Thanks a lot !

Hi, I have a question:when you drop the clutch and bring up quickly, why doesn't it stall?
@ConquerDriving
@ConquerDriving 2 жыл бұрын
Because the car is already moving and I drop the clutch at just the right moment which is less than 1000rpm above where they will land for the next gear.

Very nice. The key thing is to make high revs in every gear and than quickly to shift. Perfect, good Mazda.

Ive become confident on how to drive because you just assisted me heavily on how to use the clutch and the greens and Reds about it and made me realise that on uphills the accelerator must be punched and be quick with the clutch. THANKS

in a Citroen C4 Coupe 1.6 L the clutch is slightly heavy and when i gear up i don't need to let the rpm go down because it shoots me in the windshield, i learnt how to be faster in changing gears because this was and is my 1st car, all cars are different you said good, and from this video i learnt something, keep it up with this good stuff (y)

They taught me more of a seesaw technique, which is pretty much a never-fails technique if you know the bite point of your car well. But this is definitely much faster and I might try this out just for the heck of it!

for me it's a lot more helpful when the person teaching you a skill, like driving for example, explains not what to do, by WHY it works, it's a much better way of teaching and allows you to apply to different circumstances or cars that drive differently

Wish I found this earlier, I just snagged a 2002 sonoma and its my first manual truck ever. This will help me shift a lot smoother. Id been doing this naturally on a dirtbike for a while but I think I was just a bit less confident with a larger vehicle haha!
