5 speed Question

I know i dont know how to race a 5 speed that great, but when i race somebody at high rpm and i through it in the next gear let out the clutch and floor it again, it feels liek the clutch is slipping? Is this normal or can i just not drive. My pickup dosnt do this by the way thats why im asking.

sounds like your clutch IS slipping try holding the gas down when switching gears (power shift)

With hard driving and not knowing how to race a 5 speed, you've probably wore out your clutch. unless you can change it yourself, plan on around 7-800 dollars. Thats why I baby my car, too expensive to break.
