Thanks for all the input guys. My take is as Wstar said...I'm a lot less likely to nail the RPMs right on every time when compared to SRM. I agree Musashi that when you do heel-toe manually, it's incredibly gratifying when you get it dead on. In fact, those times tend to surprise the **** out me
.
As for SRM being overzealous on the upshifts, I too found that slower is better. I don't think it's truly about the speed as much as our own human imperfection in transitioning from 4-5. If we do it quickly, I bet we often accidentally bump the 3 gate in the process. However, slowing down and allowing the shifter to set in neutral and then progress to 5 is likely a more accurate path. I about lost my lunch on the highway today when I downshifted from 5 to 4 and the car revved for a 2 shift
