Some of the A-series 5-speed transmissions use a "dogleg" shift-pattern (aka 'reverse shift') and others use the standard shift pattern. The doglegs are pre-1980.
Dogleg:Why a dogleg pattern? In racing, 1st isn't used much, but the 2-3 or 4-5 shift needs to be quick.

The standard pattern is better for city traffic, where the 1-2 shift is used repeatedly.
