i only have 1 shifting video of terrible quality (and dark). you can kind of see my fingers pointing out on the 2-3.

45-130. back when the car was full exhaust, ported stock intake and ethanol. still stock tb and air box. it torque spun off the hit. the phone was rocking in the cup holder making it difficult to hear the car on gear changes.

there is a difference and knowing what's what will make solving the problem easier.
Letting it out too soon before in gear would result in a grinding noise when attempting to go into 3rd right? No grinding noise in my cases.

Yeah dark video but great shifting nonetheless.

Today I did two practice shifts under hard acceleration , 2-3 fingers pointed up. Good news is that I hit 3rd flawlessly both times. I did, however, notice a bit of bog when I dropped the clutch. Assuming that was the nannies engaging?

In my case it has only been happening about once every 2+ hours on track which equates to about once every 200 2-3 shifts on track (depending on the track). On track I usually have traction/stability control fully disabled or I'm in PTM Race and I haven't noticed a bog.

The fact that I am shifting with seemingly the same technique each time but getting a different result (neutral instead of 3rd) about 0.5% of the time is the frustrating part.

Yeah I had all the nannies engaged.
I’m sure that would be frustrating especially on a track.
I’ll keep shifting with my palm 2-3 and report back.
