I’ve always bumped 5th before going into reverse. Never had an issue with reverse doing it that way.

Years ago yes lol but Not with the laws we have now, get caught stunt driving or racing you can kiss your car goodbye for a month at the police pound and your drivers license will get suspended not worth it to me it's the teens with the rice burners that F@#$%^ it up and the movie fast a furious where it all started but still an awesome movie R.I.P Paul Walker.
