Perhaps I anticipate too much and take the car out of gear too soon so that's definitely something to work on. But my question is more about what to do once I'm already in that situation.
SynchroRev should match the revs for you going back into gear. If not depending on your speed, blip the throttle and put it back into gear... But if you do it incorretly or at a high speed make sure you have VDC on to cut the throttle or else you're going to clutch kick into oncoming traffic or something lol
