A couple of notes to add to the fray. Non synchro first gears. The biggest problem I have had is with carbon t/o bearing cars and traffic lights. At the red light the car is normally kept in neutral

There's a simple third alternative: 2nd gear *is* synchro. Before going for 1st, begin to go into 2nd, but only go far enough to let the 2nd gear synchro bring the gears to a halt. Going into 1st is

A much easier solution is to get into the habit of engaging 2nd gear before engaging first. This allows the syncronsers to engage a gear, thus stopping the layshaft motion, and thus a noisless shift

You can be easier on first by never changing straight from neutral to 1st. I select 2nd when I am about to take off then 1st. I never get any nicks or crunches. I do the same when I am going to rever

and engage the clutch early, giving the gears time to slow. Engage the clutch when the light turns green, then wait until you deem the noise of Or another way, which I learned at the expense of two

My thanks to all the people who pointed out the 2nd gear trick. It has been so long since I have driven a non-synch box that I had brain fade. Both my early cars now have 4synch boxes and my Magnette
