Which is as close as you can get to the old VW Beetle shift pattern (see here: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/manuals/8_61bug/08-61T1-15.jpg). I race Formula Vee in iRacing and wanted the improved realism from an accurate shift pattern.
They work great!
I was expecting these to catch or give some unnatural resistance but nope! Gears slide is as if the gaps didn't exist anymore. Can't recommend these with the Clixbeetle-GT enough!
I forgot to mention you get gears 5 6 & 7 gear blockers. So if your racing a Nascar you can block out 5,6,7 in order to feel a true 4 speed trnamission. Or even a 5 speed. Choice is yours.
So i have had this MOD for a month now and have absolutely been trying to batter the crap out of it as im a very very aggressive shifter and not even a crack. When shifting from 4 to 5 i no longer go in to 7. It tries but the blockers directs me straight to 5 no muscle memory required. My super aggressive shifting has not damaged this at all. This is a very sturdy design. Also when shifting from 6 back to 5 the mod does what its intended and directs me to 5 if it tries to go to 7. All in all pefect a must by if your sick and tired of slipping into 7 by accident.
