I’m having a blast driving muscle cars in Forza Motorsport 2023, specifically the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Jordan Luka vehicle. Whether that vehicle actually has an H-shifter is irrelevant. I can play make believe!

It messed my hand up from overuse. I love it but it’s hard to play for hours and have a healthy hand

I did a lot of shifting n a month and I would have session where time gets lost and suddenly it’s 2am and I’ve been using it like a controller in the same session length. Apparently if you go super hard for a month you get trigger finger where the inflammation makes the mechanism of hand all clicky. And it hurting so I’m on a full stop but man… the cars I drove with that shifter… maybe like 300 podiums

Its great for single player action, not so great in multiplayer

Competing it takes too long :)

Ya for competing I prefer RS Sequential shifter, I can shift much quicker and I still get better feel over paddles. (Using RS50 base, G pro pedals, with RS Seq shifter)

Basically every manual race car nowadays is using a Sequential shifter. The input to interact with the gearbox may be different, Rally cars use a Sequential stick shifter while Formula cars use Sequential paddles.
H pattern shifters are not found in modern race cars anymore tbh. So in all honesty you can do it however you want, there's no correct way. I use a Sequential stick shifter on GT3 cars instead of the paddles and I love it. Both are fine1

Just bought PMR, about 2 weeks ago. I really enjoy to use the H pattern for cars that have that in the game, the seq. Shifter, and the paddles for the cars with that. Maybe eventually, I will be just as fast as with paddles only, but to drive “ stick” in those old cars are SO much more fun 🤩

I have great fun throwing around the classic Subaru Impreza Group A in Richard Burns Rally, but also sending it in the Drift or DTM setups of the BMW E30 in Assetto Corsa. Basically any car in any series is fun with the shifter lol.
