Default powershifting?

alright so the next time i go to the track i think am going to powershift a bit..i never like to powershift cuz i kno how teerrrrible it is for the tranny, so i decided this time im just gonna do it on one of my shifts, either 1-2 shift or 2-3 shift, which do you guys think i should do it on, im prolly thinkin the 1-2 shift but i want some opinions

i would do the 1-2 shift, because i know that personally i have A LOT more problems hitting 3rd gear than 2nd. if you miss a gear while powershifting say hello to the revlimiter

power shifting is fine as long as you dont miss and or anrnt making *** tons of power threw a stock tranny.

I power shift 1-4 i drop 2-3 tenths n/a doing this. Its not hard at all.

if your going to powershift 1 shift you might as well do them all. just drive it like you stole it and you should be fine.
