It's not what you think! Read on.
Welcome to the New Skippy Car Components Survey #7 of 8, presented by Sy and myself. This week's topic is GEARBOX. Let's get right to it.
The debate on Sequential vs H-Pattern has been done on a previous thread.

In this thread, we'll discuss other gearbox related topics.
As with previous solicitations for feedback, lets keep a nice balance of positive and negative comments. Thanks so much!
2007 Skippy Car Survey #7 of 8 - Gearbox
1. If the selected transmission is a H-Pattern or Sequential, how many gears would you choose to install if you could decide? 4, 5, or 6?
2. If the selected transmission is a Sequential, should it have "no-lift shift" where you could keep your foot flat on the gas as you upshift? Consider such a device may add complexity when weighing the benefits.
3. If the selected transmission is a Sequential, should it have a gear position indicator on the dashboard (assuming a digital dash)?
4. If the selected transmission is a H-Pattern or Sequential, should the dashboard tell you when to upshift by the RPM reading, or by a series of lights that rise until the shift point, or do you shift by ear or by feel and ignore the dash anyway?
5. Any other comments?
Please use this other thread to debate H-Pattern vs Sequential.

This thread will be closed to further replies just before midnight on Monday, November 13th. The next topic will then be introduced.
Thanks again!
