You don't have to left off the gas. It is not like a manual shift with a clutch. Give her hell and shift right before red line. LOL

Oh by the way if you have HUD you can set it to have the tach come up on the windshield. I love this feature.

One more advantage of an auto, full throttle shifts with no breakage.
