the movements should be as follows:

1-2 use your finger tips to pull straight back
2-3 open hand parallel to the ground pushing forward, the car will move itself to the right gate for 3rd.
3-4 same as 1-2
4-5 use the palm of your hand to push the shifter forward and right
5-6 use your fingers to pull it back while slightly pushing to the right to keep the car from going back to 4th.

What area do you live in?
Im an hour north of Miami. I've spoken to Palm International raceway about driving school and they havent gotten back to me, its been 4 months oh well.
