No, i just found out thats all.
the feature on engine management that holds the throttle open for you is called full throttle gear change so surely that is correct?

Landy can do it on half throttle
:lol:
I thought it was called overrevving and wasting time, when applied to a road car. If you have a straight cut sequential box, ie. BTCC racer then the ratios are so close that it is the quickest way. with a sequential box, you can do clutchless changes on the way up, but you still need to use the clutch on the way down.
