After you punch first, knock the shifter right then left again. No matter how fast you do this the trans will select performance auto mode again. Performance auto mode has always been the fastest way down the stip with my setup, street tyres or MT ET's so basically, launch the car manually in 1st gear, and as its accelerating, give the shifter a rip right to left again, and it SHOULD be in "perf auto" mode and continue to shift into 2nd gear and so forth on its own?bloody autos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Under-Pants Member 2,103 Member For: 16y 5m 29d Gender: Not Telling Posted 18/03/10 11:55 AM Share Posted 18/03/10 11:55 AM Well, if you're launching in 1st gear, which you should only do on street tyres, it would save some hassels by just stalling it up in one of the auto modes and letting it do it's thing.If you're on MT's, doing the 2nd gear stall 1st gear launch trick, yep, spot on.
