When shifting a manual-transmission car, which information should guide your gear choice?
Correct answer: The engine's speed, the gear being selected and the car's road speed.
Why
Consider the engine's rpm, the gear and the car's road speed when shifting. Learn the gear pattern well enough to shift without looking down. Use coordinated accelerator and clutch movements and do not force the lever into a gear. The right timing needs practice with the vehicle, rather than a fixed number of seconds between shifts.
