some(most?) of the GT cars use either sequential gearboxes or
"dog-boxes" with ignition-breakers. So even if it's an H-gate gearbox
you jam those gears in at full throttle. Looks fairly brutal from
in-car footage.
It's pretty common in both in rallying and touringcars to use
"dogboxes" where the regulations allow.
