Someone tried it, but the car kept popping out of gear before the hit lift. I think it has to do with some sort of safety device to protect crazy a$$ people like me. ;)

Just curious.... why would you try it?

Seems dumb to me knowing that a syncro could go....
THats pure Abuse.

How would that blow a synchro? Reverse doesn't even have a synchro anyway.
I wonder why it would pop out of gear too. Maybe I'll try it sometime.

I know that there is no syncro in R , but with all the other problems im just not gonna risk it.

i have tried this in an open parking lots, the reverse gear cant take the pressure so at 5500 rpm it pushes the shifter out of gear, i even tried forcefully holding it in gear, but it pushes it out hard, maybe an auto gt-s can do it though. Let me tell you at 5500 you are hauling ass in reverse!
