skip shifting the S2000?
BTW, you shift a Muncy/Hurst as follows:
1) Gas pedal on the floor to redline.
2) Just before redline, start pushing HARD on the shifter, in the direction of the next gear. The car will be locked in gear as long as you stay on the gas, so push HARD.
3) At redline, nudge the clutch pedal just enough to let the clutch slip enough so that the shifter slams into the next gear slot, and drop the clutch back out as soon as the shifter slams into the next gear position. Note that at no time to you let the gas pedal move away from the firewall.
As abusive as that is (or sounds), I put 56,000 miles on our 69 SS 350, over two years, and I probably did that kind of shift an averave of three to five times every day. Maybe far more. Well over 2000 runs up through all the gears with full power shifts, and the transmission and clutch were both working as well the day we sold the car as they worked the day we bought it (new).
Hahahaha, anyone who thinks the S2000 transmission can take that kind of beating is krazy.
