Smoother shifts while redlining?

shifting at redline is inherently jolty. Think about it... you're going from putting down like 280whp, to 0whp during the shift back to 270whp when you shift at high rpms.

Theres a difference between jolty because of crappy shifting and jolty because of a ton of power all of a sudden being sent to the wheels.

In a GTR in R mode the shifts are are as hard as they will ever get in the car, however they are still smoother than a human can do in an MT, but you definitely can feel them despite being a DCT (Which is smoother than any human could possibly shift)
