One more thought from a former auto car, imagine on a road course coming out of a turn rolling into the throttle and the trans automatically down shifts a gear! Also a\t's are not designed for twistys in that the fluid pan is shallow and will suck air on hard enough turns. A deeper pan causes clearance problems with the ground as well. My experiences for what it's worth to ya... Oh, straight line performance is much better BTW.
