What do you mean money shift?

I had seen a Boss 302 at our local autocross last month. Very nice car!

First rule in racing - no money shifts (otherwise known as know how to shift) or buy an automatic.

It's a catastrophic down shift when you're running high RPM and (for example) shift from 4th to 3rd instead of 4th to 5th.

The owner indicated that he got a track warranty from the dealership when he purchased the vehicle and was convinced this event will be covered.
