Haha thank you! My thoughts: 1. Music doesn't help you understand cars any better. 2. Intros don't help you understand cars any better. 3. Getting to the point helps you understand cars better. Glad the recipe has worked for someone!

I am speechless. You sir are a perfect example why I love youtube so much. This was BY FAR the best explanation on sequential gearboxes, and I understood it completely. Just by looking at your drawing, it suddenly all made sense to me. Also, you are very clear and thorough. Thank you very much for this!

If only scool teachers could explain something as good as you do we wouldn't have so much problems in Argentina

Great engine noises bro!

It's also worth mentioning that almost all motorcycles use a sequential gearbox.

I appreciate the high expectations!! I am only a one man team though, I'll get there eventually! :)

Dude, the things I like about your vids: (1)you dont have any silly music playing in the back ground. (2)You dont have any silly intro sequences (3) you get straight to the point. Keep up the good work. God bless.

The Way My Man explained the downshifts and upshifts with the sounds is just 👌👌👌👌👌

Jason, I have been struggling to understand how the sequential gearbox on my new car works and you have explained it brilliantly, thank you so much!

Yes, I'm an ME; I took a few related classes but have learned the majority on my own.

I gotta say this is the best explanation on sequential gearboxes I have ever seen in my life. You have the GIFT of lecturing and I am amazed. Been binge watching this channel and I just HAD to leave a comment on this... I am gonna burn all your videos on every type of media to never lose this knowledge lmao

You're videos are awesome! It took me 5 minutes to go from barely knowing what a sequential gearbox is to fully understanding how it works.

Bro made super realistic car sounds, definitely should have those sounds in a game!!! Anyway, great video, finally was able to understand a sequential gearbox. Keep on the good work mate!

Great job! Saw dozensn of videos on the topic, each one left me with more questions than answers. You sir, were clear, consice, and comprehensive. Also, I love that you did the gear shift sound. It's what separates the real petrolheads from the unenlightened,

I love your videos! You've got a real knack for explaining otherwise very complex mechanics in visual and easy to understand terms. Thanks!

When I hear you explain the stuff I've wondered about so easily, I wonder why the heck I took so long to try to learn it. Have you been told you are an exceptional teacher? I seem to have no problem understanding any concept you explain. Well done, man!

My mechanical knowledge of car have went up drastically since I been watching your videos! Great thanks!

Great video and explanation. Very grateful for this channel.

That is by far the best explanation of a gearbox Iv ever heard! Your explaining it as an F1 gearbox but it's exactly (although slower) the same as a motorcycle! Thanks very much!

Dude, you're brilliant. I happen to be a Mechanical Engineer myself and I've found your videos extremely useful providing to-the-point info. Great work. Keep it up!

Hey, im from lebanon and im doing mechanical engineering, and all i want to say that i love ur channel, your videos and the way u explain ur topics! All the best for You, And keep going!

So my searching about sequentials landed me here, and as soon as I saw your diagram I completely understood how they worked. Great work man! Looking through your channel I quickly subscribed and will definitely be watching more videos.

I guess this was one of your earlier videos. The flow was a bit more choppy, but the explanation was pure gold! Thx for all your great vids!!

It's good to see how far you'll come alone bro. I dont mean to poke fun but you have so much more enthusiasm in your newer videos lol. Keep up the great work.

Hey Jason, I've been a fan of your videos for a couple of years now and damn, I wish I would've seen one about dog boxes/straight cut transmissions. Howsoever, keep up the good work! :)

Agreed, these vids are awesome. Thanks for taking the time to explain these concepts.

Prum prum prum prum....haha priceless :D Amazing video Jason. Keep the awesome explanations coming.

After 40 years I now know how the sequential box works. And from one of your other videos, how the "air spring" operated valves of a Formula 1 engine work.Thanks heaps from Down Under.

Your knowledge of engineering processes is something that you picked up from observing the world around you, but your desire and ability to explain these concepts to others comes from within. You, sir, were born to be a teacher. Go out into the world and make your mark, and then come back and teach this stuff. Outstanding!

Terrific video. The success pf this channel was definitely well-earned.

Where has this channel been all my life? These are some of the things that encourage me to go on with my engineering course :)

Great video! Will be checking out the rest of the channel

Jason, first let me say I'm a huge fan of your videos. I've been watching them for some time now and am happy to see how well your KZfaq channel has done. I, too, recently graduated from a MechE program. I've been thinking about the concept of clutchless shifting in a synchronized gearbox lately and just want to run my thoughts by you. I've always assumed it is a very bad thing to do, as it would cause undue wear on the synchros. But now that I got thinking about it, I started thinking that maybe it's not all that bad--provided you're fairly good at it. Initial intuition would tell you that it puts a lot of wear on the synchros because they have to synchronize the speed of the input shaft, gears, flywheel, and engine instead of just the input shaft and gears. But at a closer look, I thought that synchros wear would really only be a function of three things, 1. Speed differential between input and output shaft 2. Force applied to the shifter, and 3. Duration of contact. With a clutchless shift, there is very little speed differential (none of you're perfect), there is less resistance on the shifter than during "normal" shifts, and it goes into gear just as quickly. This would lead me to believe that a reasonably good clutchless shift can actually put less wear on the gearbox than a normal shift. Is this correct? I know the best thing would obviously be to rev match AND use the clutch, but I like to show off!

Tremic transmissions now sells sequential conversions for some of their newest aftermarket transmissions. I would love to have one in my new Shelby GT350. It was built to be driven on the road courses and street. Again you are fantastic at teaching. Keep up the great work.

This was actually a very good source of information.

Dude, discovered your channel, ive been driving for years but concepts like these make me appreciate the engineering of cars , like your videos, deff a subscribe, where do you go to school?

Dude....awesome explanation. Very clear and concise. very much appreciated piece of info. You use the perfect balance of detail and simplicity.

your videos are simply the best. Thank You

I came here knowing that in motorcycle gearbox you can switch gears in order and that this board scheme makes no sense. And now I believe I understand operation of aformentioned gearbox. Congratulations, You just earned new subscribor.

Fantastic explanation! Very clear, well done mate.

Thank you for all your videos!

Brilliant! Thank you for explaining it so eloquently.

I have to say you give the most in formative technically correct of the youtube things I watch thankyou Dale in arizona keep up the good work

Excellent explanation! Keep putting these videos out please.

I cant stop watching your videos. You break things down very well. I was wondering if there was any way you could explain how a harley v-rod evolution motor works. The transmission and motor are one piece and i have always wondered how it works. Keep up the good work!

Excellent explanation. I really liked the sound effects at 9:02 ;)

You've gotten better at your presentations over the last four years ;)

My God! I was always curious how the sequential gearbox would work! Awesome video! I'll definitely check more of your videos! ;)

Thanks for the amazing illustration

this is great dude.perfectly explained.the teacher has taught and the learner has learnt !!!!

this guy is genius, best videos ever. tanks ☺

Watching in 2020... Mister, Still it's worth a Lot❤️

Great video! keep up the good work!

Awesome drawings, they help with my understanding a lot. Thanks!

very good lessons. keep up the good work. very useful in understanding the contents.

first time i understand how a gearbox works. very clear video. thank you very much! :D

You are a blessing man!! That was such a clear explanation

Now if you don't understand what a clutch is, I have a video to explain that. Now if you don't understand what a video is, I have a video to explain that. Now if you don't understand what an explanation is, I have a video to explain that. Endlessly helpful, thank you sir.

Very well explained and very easy to understand. Great job!

good job man! keep doing what your doing!

Astounding! Great explanation....and sounds effects for the shifting for that matter :)

Fantastic explanation! Thanks so much!

great job! u explain it so well that a business student can fully understand how it works in 10 mins.

I'm almost done with 3rd-yr electrical and your channel made me have second thoughts about my major! hahaha. Cool stuff man =)

thanks man i found this very simple to understand thanks to how you explained it, cheers!!

I was going to say the same thing! Great work, please keep it up!

Nice video man. Very good interpretation.

I hardly ever comment on KZfaq videos, but I'm doing so because this was an excellent video. Good job! Keep it up!

ever wondered what an F1 car sounds like? find out at 9:04

Awesome! I really wanted to know this for a while!

well explained .. especially your visuals.. on point :)

Excellent vid but I have one pet peeve. I think you left out a crucial difference between sequential gearboxes and normal synchromesh manual that we have in everyday cars. Many have asked in the comments how is it that you can change gear without pressing the clutch and without rev matching when the gears don't have synchronizer rings and adjacent gears don't rotate at the same speed (obviously). Well the answer for those who asked is that the coupling between gears and collars is done using "dog clutches" (look it up) and pushing the collar as fast as possible into the gear. Indeed, using the clutch and slowly shifting like a normal manual would wear them more. So yes, in fact, you just engage the new gear even though the rotation speeds don't match, using dog clutches. That is why we can clearly hear the loud clicking sound when a race car upshifts/downshifts because these dog clutches absorb the impact of differing gear speeds.

Great explanation, totally got it. Thanks!

Thank you for such a good explanation.

Love your videos, thanks a lot :)

You say with sequential you can't go from 5th to second for example a turn. Technically you could, but you'd have to take your left foot off the brake and use it to disengage the clutch and still go through all the hand motions. Not efficient, but possible! I've watched several of your videos and this is the first "a ha! You got something wrong!" I've been able to catch. Great vids, accurate, informative, and passionate yet concise.

Great work, and i have been a fan of F1 since 8!

Fantastic video, just cleared up all of my confusion, thank you :)

Great to hear! It's not that the stuff is that complicated; there a just a ton of sources out there that "explain" it but don't give all the details. As you said, it takes me a while to figure this stuff out, since many sources don't give all the needed information. But I try to provide the essentials. Thanks for watching!

Awesome Explanation Thankx for that ! learned alot from it !

What a fantastic explanation.

this is just awesome, i know alot about marine diesel enginesl, but always look for a way to expand my knowledge about car engines, and this was extremely clear and easy to get. thank you. u get a like and a subscription,

Awesome, nice explanation! Clear and concise. Question: you say "that after moving in 1st gear, clutch is no longer needed for gear changes..." Then are the syncros typically bigger, stronger, more aggressive and would the same also be true for the splines/hubs?

i cant believe you've explained it and it made perfect sense. bravo.

Discovered you on r/formula1. Good stuff man!

awesome video. when i first saw the whiteboard it looked so complex, but after listening to you about 5 min in, it looked so simple :-) great video! oh, and i got here from r/formula1 too

You are the man!!! good video!

very easy to understand, good job !

It's really mind blowing as to how everything can handle the stresses of this. Just think about this F1 engines spin at around 18,000 RPM. Then in as the driver shifts it drops by ~2000 RPM almost instantly and under full throttle.

This is the best dog box explanation I've heard thus far

Glad to help, thanks for subscribing!

Top video buddy :-) Well done

simple straight! great! your video is superb!

It all makes sense now, thank you!

Great explanation. I always wondered how they worked. If I remember right, the most common road vehicle that uses a sequential transmission is a motorcycle.

thanks, that was a clear and efficient explanation!

I’ve made a video about how the Mono gearshift works and linked to this really great video, thank you

Thank you very much for such a good explanation. Cheers.

The best explanation!

my god this gearbox design is BRILLIANT thanks so much!
