It's actually easier to do than you think. I loved to downshift that bitch but I ALWAYS forgot that when you brake hard and come down in speed quickly it will always beat you to the punch. Meaning that when I think I'm downshifting to third it'll have just done that so I wind up in second and far too high in the power band for what I'm trying to do. It always becomes and "ah ****" moment. Managed to do that a few times a months for the two years I had it. Some people never learn. lol.
