How to Coordinate the Clutch and Throttle During Gear Up-shifting in Subject Three?

[JulianAnn]

Subject Three gear up-shifting requires the following coordination between clutch and throttle: 1. Coordination between engine and clutch: Engine power is transmitted to the wheels through the clutch, with only about 10mm of travel reflected on the clutch pedal. Therefore, after depressing the clutch pedal and engaging the gear, when lifting the clutch pedal to the point where the clutch friction plates begin to make contact, pause briefly at this position while simultaneously applying throttle. Wait until the clutch plates are fully engaged before completely releasing the clutch pedal. 2. When shifting from a lower gear to a higher gear: Perform quick and agile movements—depress the clutch pedal while releasing the throttle pedal, immediately shift the gear lever to the neutral position, quickly lift and then depress the clutch pedal again while shifting the gear lever to the higher gear position. Lift the clutch pedal while applying throttle, pausing slightly when the clutch plates first make contact. Wait until they are fully engaged before completely releasing the clutch pedal.
