and brake torque
I did track times back to back w/ just leaving it in auto and doing stick, didn't make a difference honestly.

I definately saw improved times by a tenth or two w/ power braking.
And as long as you don't sit and hold it for a long time and start heating it up they are basically harmless. Now doing nuetral dumps is stupid.

At the track I put it in D3 and power brake. Keep in mind that I'm using nitrous, and manual shifting the auto actually yields me slower times.

I think I'd shit myself. And you'd have do the actual shift at like 5K to get it to shift when redline hits
