How can it take 2 seconds to shift? My shifts are as fast as I can pull or push the shift knob. If I said "One One Thousand" I would have the clutch out before saying "thousand". So like .5 sec? I don't keep the clutch held in at all waiting for rpm to drop. I tap the clutch to the floor as fast as possible and let off just as fast like the floor is lava. Maybe the last 20% of letting it off is just a little slower and pushing the gas pedal at the same time. I'm not dumping it into gear it is smooth. Maybe this is stress on the transmission or drivetrain but I've shifted this way for 30 years and never had a problem. I also downshift a lot instead of braking and I've heard that it is actually better to brake because they are easier to replace but I have never had a problem with that either.
