I missed 2nd today, well not really missed but i let the clutch out before it was all the way in 2nd. I was in 1st, redlined and wanted to spin the tires in 2nd but let the clutch up too soon. It sounded horrible but ive done this like 15 times since ive owned the car and it has never caused any damage at all, just makes the worst noise ever lol.
I think a short throw might help, what do you guys think?

"Before a standing army can rule the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops that can be, on any pretence, raised in the United States."

A short shifter isn't going to help keep you from missing shifts if your problem is with your clutchwork.
That being said, I've been missing 3rd lately for some reason (like twice in two weeks now). And I'm not talking about the "hitting 5th" or "grind and go in" type misses. I'm talking the all-out "miss the s**t out of the gear" misses where you hit the notch between 1st and 3rd a few times before you find 3rd lol
only time i miss a gear is ocassionally on the track i missed 2nd once last time out but i also dont have synchros in 2nd or 5th so i have an excuse stupid t5
