Hi Karl,
Yep, that is exactly how I do it. Except for some times as I said I do press
the control key just slightly before the up arrow key so as to peel out. But
otherwise...

Hi,
I have so far jumped 8 successfully. Here is the process:

1. press up arrow to get into gear, before touching the control key.
2. Hold the control key down from now until you reach the second turn.
3. When your speedometer reaches 75, 125, 175, etc. then shift up with
the up arrow.
4. continue through the curves, trying to stay near the left side of the track.
5. When you hit the second turn, release the throttle
, and shift down to get into the propper gear. However, don't shift to
quickly, or you risk exploding your engine.
6. remember what the announcer said was the approximate speed required.
As you approach the ramp, pay attention to your speedometer and engine pitch:
6.1. Shift into the correct gear for the speed you need.
6.2. Adjust your speed so that you are at the multiple of 25 nearest
the speed you need, and either speed up or slightly from there. It's
usually possible to get a fairly good idea of your speed if you listen
to the pitch of your engine. Keep pushing/releasing the control key as
needed to maintain that speed.
While this method is not foolproof, it will work most of the time if
done correctly.
HTH,
Karl
