I agree with mishuko, that by downshifting in each gear you always have the instant option of pounding the gas to accelerate out of trouble should something make it necessary.

By coasting all the way down out of gear, the extra time it'll take for you to find the right gear and then accelerate may be too late to save an impact. Personally, I always shift down through the gears to a stop, usually missing 1st. Its the reason I bought the 6 speed in the first place. |
