NoRiceInsideMy95: yeah i gotta test my pro 5.0 too
FBodyguy01: yeah...saw the pic u snet me...how do u like it so far?
NoRiceInsideMy95: ******* awesome
NoRiceInsideMy95: the stick isnt short enough
NoRiceInsideMy95: so i ordered one from UMI
NoRiceInsideMy95: i like how its angled toward the left
NoRiceInsideMy95: but its just tall as hell
NoRiceInsideMy95: cutting it down didnt satisfy me either
FBodyguy01: how tall?
NoRiceInsideMy95: overall i love the shifter
NoRiceInsideMy95: well after i cut it its still 6.5"
NoRiceInsideMy95: the new one is 6
NoRiceInsideMy95: so it'll be perfect
FBodyguy01: u do know that a shorter stck dosent make the shifts shorter right?
NoRiceInsideMy95: sure it does
NoRiceInsideMy95: the shifter does too
NoRiceInsideMy95: raising the pivot point with a shifter shortens the throws
NoRiceInsideMy95: but by making the handle shorter it does too
NoRiceInsideMy95: if you say it doesnt youre a ricer
NoRiceInsideMy95: i mean measure the distance your hand goes with a foot long stick, now measure it with a 6" stick
NoRiceInsideMy95: its simple geometry
FBodyguy01: haha thats what i thought too...its not the length of the shifter..my B&M is a bit shorter than my stock one...its the angle that makes the throws shorter
NoRiceInsideMy95: what?
NoRiceInsideMy95: now youre a ricer
NoRiceInsideMy95: the angle has nothing to do with short throws
NoRiceInsideMy95: its simply comfort
NoRiceInsideMy95: raising the pivot of the shifter shortens it
NoRiceInsideMy95: then shortening the stick helps too
FBodyguy01: no im not i just know what im talking about...i asked a buddy of mine that does trannys and shifters
NoRiceInsideMy95: but the angle of the stick doesnt change the throw at all
NoRiceInsideMy95: it just changes where your hand is
NoRiceInsideMy95: your buddy is a dumbass
