Ok, so I'm going to do some data logging when I can actually drive for an extended period. Insurance goes back on in the next couple weeks, so I can actually take it further than just around my home. I spoke with James @ GPI and he said that they tune the trans to be ran in "D" as the best option for say, drag racing and general driving. The manual thing will happen as I described and can not be disabled from what they said. The computer takes over in manual mode using the paddles if you dont shift before the rev limiter hits. Sucks but is what it is.
