Was that power shifting??? cause if so thats what ive been doing my whole life.

Oh yea and Thacker... just from reading this your just making yourself sound more and more like a idot. Just stop while your ahead. Stop digging yourself a hole.
no tach? Power shifting is no lift or virtually no lift off the throttle, just enough to keep the rpm's from skyrocketing to redline as the gears are changed. Switching the gears will bring the rpm's down some but the closer the gear ratios are to each other the less the rpm's will drop.

The key is to modulate the throttle just enough to allow extra rpm's during the shift so when the next gear is engaged you'll be back to the exact same RPM.
