Does it rev match on the down shift, or can you do that manually? I guess I find it a bit useless if you can not rev match on down shifts (either by it doing it or the driver), but it very well may do this. And if you only want to drag race, it might be a great choice since you only would be up shifting.
It doesn't rev match on the downshift, but you can simulate that as the driver. It took me a bit to get used to it (nasty little delay in response), but it works pretty good.
