So your saying if your driving at lets say, 70MPH in 6th, when you approach a turn... you brake to 20-25MPH while in 6th, then switch to 2nd? You dont go through the other gears?
just skip all the other gears. No need to even heel toe on the street. Just brake, clutch, shifter in neutral, finish braking, turn, shifter to second, slowly clutch out and a little gas as you come out of turn.
