Roll Racing with A4?
roll races with a stock stall isnt optimal. though i think manually shifting does help you do tend to hit the revlimiter and its probably not good for your trans.
if youre into roll racing and shifting your trans get a trans go. major difference in how you hit shifts and alot more fun to drive.

but another question if i do tune it to shift higher and stiffer while this eventually damage the tranny badly or no?
Hope this helps you too,
joecar states:
Making the shifts firmer than stock is good, it won't have any negative side effects, won't cause more wear (will cause less), and won't damage anything ("firm" not "harsh/hard".
You increase firmness by editing the following:
- increasing the shift pressure tables,
- decreasing the shift times tables,
- decreasing the shift torque reduction tables.
If you're also tuning the motor, keep in mind these 2 things:
- those tables are indexed by calculated engine torque,
- the base/running pressure is calculated based on calculated engine torque ;
the PCM calculates engine torque (GM.TRQENG) from cylinder airmass which it computes from either of MAF or VE;
if your tuning the VE/MAF tables, keep an eye on the PCM's calculated engine torque and the various air pids (g/cyl and g/s);
if these go low (because the VE/MAF is heading downward by error), then the running/shift pressures will be low and the trans will slip which will cause damage.

Be patient and you'll get there man. We've all been
there in your shoes
Damn divorce may have me walking in em again for a little while but I" get past it
its simple, if you want to roll race get an m6! you'll learn fast autos, expecially stalled autos suck *** from a roll. with two similar modded cars, one being an auto, and the other being an m6, the m6 will always win from a roll. if you want to go fast in a quater then get a built and stalled auto. autos eat a lot of hp, and a stall eats a lot more!
