I like to think I drive somewhat aggressively, I have never missed a shift on this gearbox, ever. Aside from 2nd gear which I go into hard, I give it a little extra without forcing it in. I also have a B&M SSK which is a bit on the notchy side, but you won't ever miss a gear with one of those. I'm waiting on delivery for my BMW performance knob/boot as well, the extra weight will help with the effort.

It was 85 degrees outside today, and my stock RFTs stuck to the asphalt like glue... I loved it!
