My 3rd gear is awsome. It's the damn 2nd gear that grinds every time i try to shift too fast.

k Here's the story. Ive been driving manuals for over 10 years so I'd like to say I'm pretty proficiet at manual driving.

What is the deal with 3rd gear on these mustangs??? When I'm really stomping on it I always seem to grind third or hit a wall right before i get to third. Anybody else having this problem or should I be taking the stang to the dealership??

IMO - get a shifter.
