Giving TL some exercise

After owning this vehicle for a week, I decided to push this car harder by taking off harder meaning not spinning the tires or anything just accelerating harder once the vehicle is moving by flooring it and let the tranny switch gears on its own. After few rounds of that I had noticed that the car was shifting smoother on normal acceleration. Not that it was shifting rough before or anything it's just that whenever I drive slow through the residentual area and when the car is upshifting at a low speed it feels like it shifts a little harder into next gear there is no slamming or jerking. Once in a while giving the TL a hard run as long as all fluids are changed religiously like transmission fluid and of course oil will keep this baby lasting well into or over 200k
