Don't think this would fix things for you. If you find the revs are dropping too low, the simplest solution is just to change gears quicker. When you're going first to second, there's often a large rev drop to do ~2k if you've waited until 20mph after pulling out of a junction. You're probably finding the car lurches forwards as you wait for the engine to slow down to match speeds

I developed blipping on upshifts on my own. Tired of Jerky shifts in the s2k. Now I do it on my other cars too. Makes life easier.

That's a great tip! On my car I don't need to use this method on upshifts because the RPMs fall slow enough that I can upshift smoothly just by timing when I let the clutch out so it engages right as the RPM drops to where it needs to be in the next gear like your diesel Fiat. Took a bit of practice but the feeling of getting the rev match perfect and feeling nothing when the clutch engages is so satisfying. I can definitely see how this method could be quite useful on cars where the RPM drops quickly

The way u explained this with your hands was actually really helpful

Minor point, but I noticed how the camera for the pedals on the Vauxhall was more to the side than on the Seat, which was from above (presumably due to the interiors of each car). Even though pedal cams are usually from above, I actually find this side view better as I can see more clearly whether and by how much you are pressing down each pedal.

Great video. Really helpful. Some friends, ask me, why I revmaching when downshifting or sometimes when upshifting if I not need for , because I not in a racetrack on I need keep my revs up. My answer it's always: do you feel the car Jerking or the downshifting when I do that? - no, it's really smooth as if you don't change gears. Exactly, that is the purpose. Also, more life for the gearbox and the clutch.

I had a car when I was younger that the tach didn't work so I just taught myself to listen to and feel the car. My two cents, learn to rev-match when downshifting, it will help save the life of your clutch and trans. This was a fantastic video that alot of people can learn from.

OMG thank you! This explanation is what I was looking for, I finally understand the relationship between the powertrain and the actual driver controls, thanks.

I usually only rev match on downshifts on my Fiero, since most of the time upshifts are smooth. I do sometimes blip on upshifts just because it sounds cool 😅

in my manual 125i, even if the revs are in the right place (or above for where 2nd gear should be), it’s always a bit jerky unless you stay on the bite point for eons. first to second is much smoother if i keep on the throttle just a little bit just before i raise the clutch to engage second gear and keep it there (or add a bit more) until the clutch is fully out. i don’t blip like in this video because i tend to rev it out more and i know even if my revs are correct it’s not super smooth without any throttle. this changes if i’m going downhill though - i don’t have to use any throttle to make the first to second shift smooth

Thanks for the video! I plan to buy a manual car sometime in the future, and your videos are very helpful. As an aside, I noticed that I have an indentical pair of shoes to the ones you are wearing in this video!

As fun as Rev matching downshifts is, there's just something so sexy about blipping upshifts. When done right it's amazingly satisfying.

it's different for other cars but the concept is there, excellent video 👏✨ edit: I drive a carburettor engine car, but it's weak, so it's stutters even when it's already leveled with the clutch.

That Vauxhall sounds amazing!

These are my current methods. Why they need to be performed are either the Engine characteristics cause the Revs to drop below the right rev range for the next gear, or you took too long to complete the shift such as when you get caught in the shifter gate and your timing is now off. If I am at Lower to Medium Revs (revs don't drop as much compared to when you are at high revs; where 1st to 2nd gear might have 2000 RPM drop when at high revs), - just release the clutch to the bite point and add a gentle amount of gas (6:36) I find this much more consistent and reliable than upshift throttle blip. If I am at higher revs, and say the revs dropped to idle for reasons mentioned above (messed up shifting, got caught in the shift gate, etc. ) -Either double tap the gas , or do one big throttle tap to get the revs up, -wait for the revs to drop, - then peel off the clutch at medium speed before adding gas (watch video; changing up gears quickly and smoothly by dropping the clutch).

I got my first manual car, a 2021 GTI, and struggled making shifts smooth. The 1 to 2 shift sucked the most and even clunked the lower mount when it jerked, no matter how slow I release the clutch. One time I shifted while I accidentally had my foot on the throttle just a little bit. The shifts were way smoother. That really helped me, but for some reason I still have a hard time doing it perfectly consistently. I'm starting to mess with little things now like adding lower engine mount insert, and may even look at shifter cable bushings to make shifts feel crisper. The insert may cause a little more cabin vibration so that's why I didn't get a billet one.

aaaah just got my first car, a mazda 2 ^^ and i really have a hard time with jerky 1-3-1. Cant wait to get to try the last bit, little gas + lifting the clutch.

Great video, I find it very hard to match the revs in the mornings when I drive to work, seems like the RPMS always drop so fast when I upshift even all the way up to 5th gear which makes it hard to match revs when upshifting and especially from 1st to 2nd I will try out this method in the morning. When I come home in the afternoons the RPMS drop a lot slower and I can match the revs easier. 9:17 is the level I want to be at when I upshift, how the way I upshift is I let the clutch engage first before I add any gas. I want to start adding gas to my upshifts since it sounds so much better and faster but I want to avoid burning my clutch up when I give gas before the bite point. 14:34 This is exactly how my car is, you give a little gas and the RPMs start jumping to 2000 or over + a stage 1 exedy clutch made it very hard to learn on as a beginner. I have gotten better on keeping the RPMS below 2000 starting off in first gear, I rev it up over 2000 RPMs from time to time which makes me cringe but getting used to it.

For me, something like this is only necessary in 2nd-3rd: 1st-2nd you can just shift quickly and catch the next gear when the revs match on their own 2nd-3rd takes a little longer if you wait for the gearstick to move itself back to centre That said, modern cars with electronic throttles have a lot of lag for emissions reasons (they'll actually smooth your inputs intentionally) so this is really unnecessary with that throttle hang. The issue you run across is having to wait for the revs to drop

i think upshift blip is only necessary if u take too much time or longer for a gear change. if u shifting the gear quickly then the revs will remain a lil bit more or less or still be the same( as u push the clutch down) for the next gear. but if ur revs really drops too much like almost idle then u need to blip the throttle so that the revs get match of the engine speed and ur road speed and results into a smoother gear change.and u if u gonna skip couple of gears then its best to wait longer before shifting so that the revs drop a lil bit more so in this situation u certainly no need for bliping.am i ryt richard??

It is right but all cars are different, the revs drop very quickly in cars with light weight flywheels, my VX220 needed a blip and my MX5 ND2 also benefits from either holding the gas a bit or blipping it as you have to change gear very quickly to finish before the revs are very low. In fact, the ecu does it automatically when changing up at high rpm.

The gears synchro may be worn, but I have found changing the gear oil has made selecting gears easier, but not always, it depends what the problem is. The trouble with really quick gear changes is it can be difficult to make it smooth.

I used this method almost always with my previous cars. But the problem is my current VW Polo doesn’t want to let me do the blip with clutch down. I have no idea why but blip doesn’t make sense when clutch is down. And this is pretty inconvenient. I can only push accelerator and hold it there so revs goes up BUT too high. So I just can’t do it properly with Polo. Strange behavior of electronic I think. So I just get used to make gear shifts really quick and in that way I don’t need that blip. But anyway sometime especially when I want to change gear down this problem is still here. I can’t make blip. And everyone downshifting I should keep clutch pedal like during the start on the 1st gear. Strange polo🤷‍♂️

What are some well known petrol cars where the revs fly up fast all the time, vs. some names of brands of petrol cars where they don't?

Your sock choices are admirable 👣😌👍

thats how my friend beats me in race exactly .. he uses upshift blip like a mad man...

That's great, but my car has a rev hang, so only way to perfectly switch a gear up is to do it slowly (not releasing clutch slow, but changing and releasing when revs go down to match gear speed), or to release the clutch slowly if you want to switch gear faster which is not good for clutch...

I think a great way of letting out the clutch is to think of it as peeling your foot off the clutch like when you peel a stamp off of an envelope.

It has a very nice clutch. Parking is very hard though, very big turning circle with no visibility.

Whats the difference between blipping and just getting back on the throttle as your releasing the clutch

In some cars, such as my Opel / Vauxhall Insignia, when I go up the gears, when I press the clutch the engine rpm does not go immediately to no load (850 rpm), but the car holds it for about 2 seconds at the expected rpm of the higher gear, making the up-shifts smooth without effort. Because it is a big diesel with big flywheel, the engine is a bit slow to rev down once the clutch is pressed, so changing gears quickly when reving the engine high is kinda unavoidably jerky, cause the rpm is still too high for the next gear.

Hey Richard, I’m driving Mazda2.. lol Just 2 questions: 1- in the end you mentioned about the issue for new cars like mazda2, did you mean for changing to up gears? So clutch down, choose a gear, then let clutch up a bit then add some gas? To avoid the rev flying? 2-the other video of yours for rev matching for downshifting, advised to finish the tapping same-time finishing gear choosing- then let clutch up; however I saw another video “advance driving school” shows they do the tapping after putting gear stick to the lower gear, then let clutch up. Feels like that is easier to do, but I trust you more, what’s ur thoughts on this? - sure Mazda 2 can do the rev matching in your way? (Considering the flying rev issue) Thanks a lot

It does depend on your car. In my Leon rev before changing gears is easier but in some cars where the revs drop quickly revving after changing gear is easier. The goal is to have the revs where they need to be before the clutch comes up. For rev matching up a gear you also want the revs before the clutch comes up.

so its the same thing as when you rev match downshift but with less gas??

If you have a car with lots of rev hang would blipping the throttle make it even jerkier?

So basically blip everytime we upshift and downshift?

I have the opposite issue, Rpm hang is too long (6MT M2) so when sou release the clutch rpm still too high (similar to a heavy fly wheel) it’s probably due to emissions, but very annoying, only smooth if I wait a bit longer to rpm to drop then release the clutch, it’s bad, particularly from 1st to 2nd.

Haven’t finished watching the entire video yet, but.. Isn’t it easier (and faster to do) to learn the gaps between gears (gear ratios) and to come off (almost drop) the clutch when your engine speed has matched the gear speed without using the throttle blip? For example: I’m changing up from 2nd to 3rd, I’m at 3000 revs, and I know my revs will be around 2000 in 3rd gear . I’m know changing gear quickly and releasing the clutch just at the right moment, at 2000 revs (before the revs have fallen further.. otherwise you need to blip so it’s faster) I’ve been doing this for a while and it makes my shifts really quick and smooth. One downside, you need to be quicker and quicker with your gear stick and clutch the higher gears you’re in. 5th to 6th is a really small gap, (at 2000 revs only about 250-350 I believe) so you need to be lightning fast - and I am ;) - It’s amazing when you’re get all your shifts right from 2nd all the way to 6th. Edit: Watched it now, and you mentioned it. Great! I’m driving a VW Golf 6 with an 1.4TSI engine, I think pretty similar to your Seat’s. So it’s probably doable in your learner car as well.

There mk6 golf is actually completely different. The Leon I have is equivalent to the mk7 golf which has a very different chassis and different engine despite still being called a 1.4 TSI. I know in my car, the revs drop too quickly to catch with the clutch without a blip.

Very informative video! I knew all these things I'll be honest but you added more depth to it and I really enjoyed it. Also, I could tell you were in the UK before you even spoke because of the weather lmao Edit: my deepest condolences for the loss of Her Majesty the Queen :(

I use to match the gear change speed to the gears , i almost never blip if not maybe going uphill in case the car slows down too much and im not able to upshift quickly

I was doing this before,because it was smooth.But I stopped doing it cause I thought it was damaging my car(2 weeks after I discovered this *throttle blipping*, my flywheel and Clutch died)Time to do it again I think.

I tried it today in my mustang and I ended up getting it down pretty good and it is definitely faster but the first time I did it and I accidentally revels it to high I mean I was able to dump the clutch ofc but i shouldn’t have fever it almost to 3k rpm to do that

People often ask - when do you blip the throttle or gas pedal? Upon when the clutch pedal is all the way down while you're still in the present gear? The clutch pedal is still all the way down or it's still disengaged, but you have shifted into neutral? In other words, clutch pedal down, gear in neutral, blip the throttle? Or, clutch down, shift into the lower gear, THEN blip the throttle. Or, in doesn't really matter which one I described?

I remember that's also how my dad taught me to drive a manual when I was a kid. But yeah, try your best to only step on the clutch when slowing down as close as you can get to a standstill without stalling. Avoid coasting in neutral or with the clutch pressed in. Just practice a lot and you'll find your own rhythm in driving.

Is it okay to blip the throttle BEFORE changing up a gear, then change up a gear, and as the revs start to gradually fall you effectively drop the clutch and get back on the gas. I’ve been doing this method for quite a while now but I don’t know if it’s good for your car or not.
