Vette(s): yellow 2007 C6. Borla Exhaust, racing air filter, coolers for all fluids save washer, Z06 suspension.
I ofter miss shifts from second into third in my '07 C6. Once it is missed finding the gear is a pain. This usually happens when I am trying to shift quickly.

the February 2008 issue of Corvette Fever has an excellent article on racing your car, including shifting techniques and clutch care . Check it out.

Vette(s): 2008 zo6 Black
Fortunately, I have not had any shifting problems with my 2008 ZO6.  Shifting has been very accurate and smooth.
