Many have suggested activating at .3. Do you think this will give me consistent 60 foot times to work from?
How do you manage this?
Thanks all.

Well, I'm running a car that's in another class altogether, but I think activating the stop at the moment you're shifting is a recipe for a mess. I think what you're doing sounds just fine (IMHO).
For what it's worth, we go on the stop immediately (literally .000), shift at 1.0, and are on the stop ~1.9. Been quite predictable.
