1-2 needs to be slow unless it's redline shifting cuz it feels like the two ratios don't "meet" each other.

2nd to 3rd needs all my attention.

No least favorite really, more like technically difficult (in order)...6-4, 5-4, 5-3, or 4-3

2-1? I avoid this shift like the plague

2nd to 3rd does require a lot of attention. I wish I could make a diagonal shift, but on this car I first need to guide the stick into neutral, then up.

5-4 cause you're going to be at redline and you always have to worry about slipping into 2!

2-1 is hard to sync - probably the hardest shift imo.

Everything else is just natural.
