Update on Berg shifter | 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Replica, Automotive Community

Ron O1984/2010 IM, B.C. Canada

My IM was back on the road for a few days and I got a chance to try out my new Gene Berg reverse locking rapid shifter. If any of you have ever driven a Mazda Miata you'll have a good idea of what the Berg shifts like. VERY short/quick shifts. It's not as slick as the Miata, but close. The rapid shifter is so fast I've got to be sure that the clutch is in when I throw a quick shift. But, boy, do you pay for quality.

Ron:

Are you going to add this to your expenditure total? ;-)

I've decided to no longer keep totals. What I don't know can't hurt me....right?
