powershifting and speed shifting are basically the same thing, just different descriptions.
best way to work it is to side step or kick the clutch, just touch it enough...
takes a LOT of practice... but who am I kidding... we all know that drag racing takes less skill than auto-x...
Derek, that's what I'm refering to. Yes I use the clutch but barely tap it just enough to take the tranny out then back into gear. But I'm willing to say that if u never put foot on your clutch and try to shift a 5spd at high rpms.....it aint gonna happen. Well it will but bye bye tranny.

Oh and 8k shifts? :o I did't know pushrods go that high!
