i'm naturally trying to shift through each gear as quickly as possible under WOT. So you're saying to simply row through the gears slower? Won't I lose time doing that?

Well, yeah lol. You asked for smooth shifts which requires slowing them down. If you just bang through the gears, there is nothing you can really do to smooth it out completely.
