It's actually not a mega fail thread. The M-mode of the 7AT has the same issues with being aware of your RPMs and shift timing that a manual does. If anything it's a little harder, because it's harder to get a feel for the shift delay. In a manual the shift delay is all on you (working the gear lever and clutch), but on the 7AT you click a paddleshifter and the delay happens afterward (ECU, TCM, 7AT doing their jobs).
With any kind of power mods, and especially if you're FI and/or use bigger gears in the rear, the top end of 1st and 2nd fly by really quickly. The 1-2 shift at full throttle basically requires you to be psychic and click the button ~1K RPM before the shift happens  .
