How do you rev match with paddle shifters?

you don't have to "rev-match" with an M6. You can, but it's not something everyone does. When you hit an RPM in your M6, you shift. I can do the same with my paddles. And I have a built in "dummy app" that prevents me from over-revving and blowing up anything. I have read a few post were this app is needed for some of the M6 drivers.

Do you track your car, or does it only go in a straight line? That's the only reason I can come up with for your "understanding" of rev matching...

straight line, and I understand rev-matching. I have driven many manuals in my life, just gone to the dark side now.

The right side.

Talk about rev matching. 18 wheelers for years I got TIRED of shifting gears.

I always got a kick out of guys who drove manual transmissions who would get in my truck and couldn't drive it.

I admit it, my manual is smarter & faster than me. That is okay, more than I can say for some people.
