The other day SRM basically redlined me in neutral at 60 mph when I accidentally pulled the shift knob all the way over to 2nd while trying to go from 6th to 4th gear
I hate that.

Sometimes I'll throw it in neutral and coast up to a light, but it rev matches me to about 4k at times (depending on when I do it)... then I look around all embarrassed.

Or, I hit the gate (but don't put it in) for 3rd when going 4th to 5th and it rev matches it to 3rd... lol.
