Right on. Its seems to me that the same procedures would apply going from 5th to 2nd, clutch, take it out of gear, match RPM's clutch shift while on the brake. I can see how it would be more demanding though. Anyway coming up on 1000 miles so I'll be more be putting the car through the paces soon (I want to break her in easy).

SRM though... Not for me. I want to learn the art of racing. I don't like computers getting in the way in machines. Bad in airplanes, bad in cars. I like the old school gearbox and shifter.
