Quote from tristancliffe :

You never need to shift down whilst accelerating if you corner in the right gear.

I don't agree with that, but perhaps it's because i don't want to go in the red zone...

Quote from Huru-aito :

With synchromesh or dog engagement rings that are in good condition, you always have to unload the gears to disengage them. That means either using the clutch or lifting the throttle (or using ignition cut or similar methods to cut down engine torque).

Your real life sequential car might be computer controlled, so you don't actually need to do anything but move the stick. It's different behind the scenes.

OK but it's disappointing anyway.

Hello. I've been playing LFS for a couple a weeks, now. I really like this game, but I'm not a Michael Schumacher yet Nevermind.

I'm using a G25 to play the game. In cars that use sequential shift mode, like FXR, I've got a problem, concerning the shift down. I cannot shift down while accelerating. Or i have to clutch... not really realistic. I've driven a sequential car for a year, IRL, and I actually could shift down while accelerating.

In the game, if you stop accelerating, with a turbo car, you lose your turbo pressure.

So, why is it impossible to shift down while accelerating ?

Thanks and sorry for my poor English.
