    Gears feel 'Blocked' when downchanging?

    rev matching may save some wear , but its totally unnessasary in a road car no matter what you might tell yourself . i have seen boxes used by non racers on the road go past 200k and have gone to 180k myself . if a box is made of cheese maybe , but i almost guarantee a few fluffed up shifts...
