On a stock car I'm a bit surprised. Second is a quick gear though.

Might have to do a test to see if I get the same.Benny.

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 6m 18d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 14/10/12 03:34 AM Share Posted 14/10/12 03:34 AM Yeah I always use manual mode just so I know what it's going to do. Except WOT 3-4 where it refuses to change but that's another story.Regardless, I wouldn't think it should hit limiter when stock and in either auto mode but others may have had the same happen?

I usually use manual shift anyway...
