Now I can deal with it, but the dame thing happened in second gear today, which leads me to believe there is something wrong... I only have a CIA done to it, so it's not because of too much hp (if such a thing exists) and the tires still look brand new. Hardly any ware. Any ideas? Thanks!

Oh yeah, and my starts/launches seem normal enough... And I have also noticed that i can take the rpms a hair past 8000. Is that normal? Did I get some factory freak 370z?
Have you checked your tire pressure? I thought I needed new rear tires due to a loss in traction, and then found out ALL my tires were around 25PSI instead of the rated 36PSI. After they filled them to the proper level, my traction is much better.
