Downshifting to First Gear q - new boxster owner

[shadrach74]

I downshift out of habit, but then I also costantly heal and toe out of habit. I can down shift into first any speed that is possible in that gear. My S will easily top 40mph in first, and there are turns that are tight enough to warrant the down shift. If you know what you are doing, it puts very little stress on the tranny/clutch...
