Sorta concerns me when I wanna race someone, because a FAST smooth shift seems almost impossible.

Anyone?

That's what happens when you have a "long" throw clutch with a "short" throw shifter. IMO the 6-speed in the Crossfire is far from the smoothest in the world. I too am very disappointed in it. My Jeep TJ shifts smoother than the Crossfire.

On the bright side, the longer I drive the car it seems I've gotten better at shifting from 1st to 2nd. :wink: :wink: :wink:
