I've tried engaging power mode, and manually shifting the shifter to 1st, pressing the manuial button but no go.
Interesting. So, what happens? You just can't physically move the shifter into 1st gear position?

Quote:

from a standing stop to 40mph approximated
5k rpm at 1st gear
3k rpm at 2nd gear
2k rpm at 3rd gear
1.5 rpm at 4th gear

I usually put the shifter to 1st during auto crosses, and when i hit -40-30, im stick at 2nd gear the rest of the course

(overrev protection automatically switches me to second on the straights)
ok. I'm talking about 20-35 mph corners, so I'll have to experiment with downshifting to 2nd or 1st. Thanks. :-)
