trey100... you make a good point, but I think you're missing mine. My point is that the lag between 1st and 2nd has been reduced, and I'm not able to get ~4.5s without much trying. If I kept trying, or had Sport Cup 2 tires, I might be able to improve the 0~30 time, but the fact that I'm getting respectable, repeatable times even with less than stellar 0~30 further reinforces the point that there is a 2s DME delay between shifts in 6MT cars.
But if your 0-30 would have been 1.8-2 seconds, you'd have a phenomenal 0-60 time. So why blame the delay rather than the poor 0-30? I feel the delay, trust me, but it is not 2 seconds. If it were 2 seconds and your 0-30 time is 2.5, that is 4.5 seconds right there. 0-60 would be 6.5+. So is there a delay, sure, but I find It to be minor in sport plus with fast shifts, maybe 50% of the time.
