the manual mode is useless! i leave it on first to about 7000rpm and switch it to 2nd the rpm stays up untill i shift again to 3rd wtf it messed me up when it didnt shift right.

Use sport mode. It will hold the RPMs longer than normal drive mode and it doesn't have the annoying shift delay that manual mode does.

just pull it all the way back to M,Look up on your DIC bottom left corner it will have a big "S" that means sport mode or you have the option to tap shift if you like

Then either you are still not doing it right, or there is something wrong with your car.... Because ALL the automatics have Sport mode...

As for the G37... looking at the specs why would you think you could even beat it? Shouldn't really be a surprise you lost... Also, take a look at the sticker price on that G37...
