I always thought 'power shifting' was when you never released the gas while shifting... I could be wrong, but that's what my friend Sam used to do w/ his '65 Stang and he called it 'power shifting'. And to try and stay on topic, you MUST push in the clutch on my car to start it, but another friend's Toy truck you don't have to... Anyone know why that is? | ||
