To drag race, would I have to put in manual mode using the gear selector, manually downshift to first at a stop, and then shift to drive after taking off to let the trans shift itself?
Just start in 2nd gear ... First gear is only good for about 30mph before hitting the limiter. You will just have to experiment what works best for you to get off the line. I've tried first gear and it just goes up in smoke pretty fast.
