Vibrating and shaking really make my knob feel pretty good. Now you're saying I gotta take my hands off of it?!

Well..... last time I checked, the query was about a 370Z. And as I said before "That's pure Bovine Scatology"!

Do you know the clearance specs for the shift rail spacing? There's a very real risk they are tight enough you risk damage by resting weight on the shift knob.

I'm right handed so I like to steer with that hand as much as possible
