I didn't spend this kind of money just to always have to go into second before first.. I mean what is that..? Your happy doing that? Thats something I'd expect to do on a 10 year old Honda, not a brand new Crossfire. I'll happily shove it into first every single time because I just don't care. If this tranny breaks they can replace it under warranty for being a pos. The sooner it breaks and I get a new one, the better.
