Corrected entry: When Brian is topping out his car in the beginning scene in the stadium lot, He shifts 8 times. No Eclipse is an "8 speed" that suddenly ends up in reverse, making 9 gears. You can see the first 5 to 6 shifts, you can hear the blow off valve for the 7th, and then the final 8th shift. (00:03:20)

Correction: There is a pause in the first shot but sounds more like a pedal release (for what reason is still up for grabs). 3 shifts are seen in hand shots...and 2 via the clutch. There is a phantom-like pause, hiss, and rpm drop suggesting a shift change but that is questionable and still makes only 6. After that is a downshift for the spinout.
