on the way home a rare chance for full throttle run into top gear from a stand still revaled faultless gear changes
no problem at all, couldn't fault it. But lift and it changes early and lags a fraction still, as it would.

I have found this too... If you get it into 6k+RPM it seems to change perfectly, just if it changes anywhere between about 5200 and 6k it has the lag...

Really odd :-/ :-/
Fine below 3k rpm  :'(

I've noticed this too, thinking about it. :-/ The overtakes that require the pedal buried into the carpet don't normally turn into buttock-clenchers. It's the easy ones where you just come off the kickdown switch to give it less of a beasting. ;D

 Can't argue with that  ;D

I found just easing off power bit slower stops any issues, also with a full tank its fine. Really must do a re-calibration though soon
