Usually only happens in a car with a manual transmission- A money shift is an accidental, far too aggressive down-shift, in which the engine performs the biggest red-line you've ever seen. It's referred to as a money shift, because it usually results in money coming out of your pocket for a new head, pistons etc.
My buddy Erin was doin around 65 mph when he accidentally hit second gear, money shifting his way to a new engine.

To me it always meant, push in the clutch, take about 20-30 seconds to move the gear shift leaver to the next gear, and let out the clutch.

I've always understood it to mean shifting well below red-line which is slow like your granny. Not what you want in a race.
