so basically i feel really really accomplished
while i did some driving in the truck and shifted with a few of short stalls, i managed to not kill the engine mid-drive.
also, my dad said that my idea of 'spiking' the revs for just a brief moment (go from 2000 to around 4500 or so rpm) (5500 rpm is right by the redline on this truck) to give me more time to shift without a stall is great and he hasn't thought about it himself.
next time i practice (i do not have the time to- i must work very much in school as the quarter has 4 more weeks until it is over [this means that i have to make up for my high 70's in 3 out of the 4 of my classes]) i will try this technique.
