2nd to 3rd Gear Shift Improvement
We all know shifting from 2nd to 3rd can be quite frustrating at times. There's nothing much worse than muscling your Porsche to the max and missing a gear. 
This is a very common problem but I may just have a helping solution.
After speaking with many customers and discussing their views it appears that the Numeric Racing shifter has helped significantly to correct this problem. This in fact makes perfect sense. The structural integrity of the Numeric shifter is extremely strong and versatile were its entire design helps to eliminate the source of this problem.
Even If you prefer to keep your vehicle in stock form, there really is no need to let the “Notchy” loose feeling and the gear missing taunt you any longer. The Numeric Racing shifter is equipt with an OEM throw setting that allows you to keep that stock throw position while providing a more tightened crisp shifting experience. Really no matter the vehicle set up, the driver, the street, or track the Numeric shifter is a great improvement to these nagging occurrences.
Here are a few pics of customer cars w/the factory console.

I have the stock shifter and I'd definitely agree with this statement. It's vague and imprecise.

A lot of people have an issue with their shifter. The stock plastic housing uses plastic bushings as with other short shifters. Allowing there to be more clearance and play in the unit. Also by us using bearings eliminates the drag that a lot of people experience with their unit. Numeric also utilizes a rigid billet aluminum frame. I made one of these units for my car because of the frustrations I had with my shifter. I wanted something that was more precise, rigid and utilized bearings. Also have one where I have multiple positions to choose from for your shifter throw. I then decided to go back into business and offer these to the public. Patented the shifter and I am enjoying working with all the Porsche people in this industry. I use to own Vortex Racing that manufactured motorcycle racing products. Anyone that used Vortex Racing products will notice I also used bearings in all the shifting mechanisms for bikes. I got burned out in the motorcycle industry mainly because of all my injuries as I am unable to ride motocross anymore.
What also came to my attention recently is I have a brand new set of GT3 Cup Cables here. I began to pull and push on the one cable and there was a lot of drag and the cable was jerky. Then the other cable was absolutely free of drag and had no resistance it. So what I did was clean and lubricate the cables and then the one cable improved. Still had some drag but I don't think it will be an issue. I am going to post up videos on Numeric Racing's website demonstrating this. Also how I cleaned and lubricated the cables as well. This is another reason why some people may have issues with their shifter. This is also another reason why I am going to be offering Cup Style cables for specific Porsche models.
Not everyone may experience a problem but regardless the Numeric Racing shifter is an improvement over the stock and other short throw shifters. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I'd be more than happy to answer them to the best of my ability.
