Paddle Shift

One of the test reviews for the AT I saw they got the best results by holding the brake pedal with the left foot and revving it to around 1400 rpm.

You can do low-wheelspin launches or burnout launches with the auto in manual mode. It only depends on the revs before releasing the brake pedal.

One thing I like about the paddles is you can be in manual mode cruising in 3rd gear, then slam the accelerator to the floor and shift to 2nd and get crazy wheelspin! (I did this starting at 30mph going around a slight bend) This is more difficult to do with a manual, IMO.

This is what I have been doing exactly and it works perfectly! Im consistantly running 13.4's in my AT Z. I hold the break down with my left foot and rev just to about 1.5k RPMs and punch it at the same time you let off the break. Your launches will be great! I get no wheelspin most of the time and even managed a faster 60ft time than an 09 GTR this past friday night. When I say consistantly I really do mean consistantly! 8 Runs today, 7 of them were 13.4's and I had one 13.5 flat that was due to a shift just a tad late.

I've also found the best time to shift is right as your needle is hitting 7k RPMs, don't wait for it to hit 7.5 in the AT. If you have quick reflexes and shift as your needle hits 7k your clutch will engage right at about 7.2k RPMs and you'll get a pefect response from the next gear! I got a lot of crap from my buddies for going with an AT at first until they saw me put up 5 13.4 quarters back to back. That shut them up real fast!
