Yes sir. I highly suggest reading Ranger's driving tips some time if you ever get the chance. He's a Corvette racer, but his principles of driving still apply to anyone rowing gears. After my trip to the track, I decided to re-read his tips and I can't wait to go back to the track again to try it out. I've been practicing rowing gears in this car and getting my seating position just right. I realized I had my elbow turned the wrong way because of the angle my seat was at at the time.
