I don't manually shift very often unless I feel the need to down shift myself. Usually, that's at a stop and I drop it into first and then let the transmission do the rest. Mostly I don't even have to do that. If you put it in 'S' mode (Summer) it will always start in first gear. If you have it in 'W' mode (Winter) it will always start in 2nd UNLESS you manually put it down in 1st gear prior to 'launch'.
Hope that helps.
Yeah, I was kind of in the air about how it would hold in a lower gear like that, the first time it done it I though something broke. Since I really didn't drive it much and it had not done it before I put the kit in it, I thought it may have been part of the ECU tune. When I was questioning RENNtech about what their ECU tune done, I believe they did mention something about the tranny, but it was probably shift points or something like that.
