I know a road particularly well and was sitting behind a car at 40. As I approached the last bend of a straight I moved the automatic stick to L increasing revs to 4500.
As soon as I could see the straight was clear, accelerated and moved the stick to 3 at about 55.
This seemed to work much better as I didn't have to wait for the kick down to activate.
First time I've owned an auto and I'm not sure if the gear selector should only be moved when at a stand still.
Anyone else use an auto like this? Likely to cause any damage?
