Hi all,

Been sometime since my post asking about how to shift down gears :)

I was practising for quite sometime (almost everyday gee :D ) and seems to get slightly familar with gear shifting now.

However the more I practise and race, I do notice 1 sympton. Previously I was always able to shift up to the highest gear in certain tracks (example Gear 5 of FD and Gear 6 of Impreza). But I tends to bang a lot onto walls and lose a lot :(

Now however, I *very very* seldom reach the final gear, able to win much races, but the feeling is very strange.

Is that consider normal or is it a sign I still sux?

Thanks for any suggestions...
 
Shiden, try to keep off the walls, it's better practice if you can drive without relying on them to keep you on the track.

One thing about going slower, is your oil light on? Changing the oil every 120 miles or so will keep the power high.
 
Have you adjusted the final gear or the auto set up? If you can't get through all the gears that has to be it (unless you keep crashing). Slide the little thingy to the left. Just do two clicks at a time and you'll know when it's right.
