in this case, i never mis-shifted per say, but since the computer automatically over-revved for me, i realized my mistake before it was too late.
Yes! I did the same thing. The shift gates are fairly narrow as we know, so it's pretty easy to go into 2nd instead of 4th if you're not careful. But when I got the shifter over to 2nd the SRM kicked in and revved up the engine about to the red line. I caught my mistake before letting out the clutch and no harm was done!
