This would be my primary concern, even given sufficient traction. Even in bone-stock form, 1st gear on the 7AT goes by very quickly at full throttle. It goes so quickly that it's very hard to get the timing right for the 1-2 upshift without clicking too early or bumping the rev limiter (keep in mind the shift isn't instant anyways, there's a factional second of input and engagement lag).
4.08 gears alone would make that situation even more difficult, and then adding SC...
Maybe some have far better reaction ability than I do, but I think first gear would basically be a waste at that point. You'd just click through to 2nd early to avoid bumping the limiter before you can blink.
