I noticed the rpms don't "hang" as long as when SRM is engaged while upshifting. It seemed easier to snick off faster gear changes.

Before, with SRM on, there was a long enough pause that I could take a sip of coffee while accelerating from a stoplight.

Anyone else notice this? Or am I a victim of psycho-somatic button pressing in a Z?
Victim and perpetrator.
