Um am i the only one that noticed that in my automatic 97 accord the shifter goes D4-D3-2-1. You can control when to shift by putting the car in 1 then accelerate till you hit desired rpm, i prefer 5000-5500 rpms then switch it up then 5500 again switch. I have beat ppl in drags many times like that. it gives u a boost when you control the gears

EDIT: remember to push that little button in when u do it from 2-3 and dont try shifting down unitl u stop u can blow out ur engine i think, or break something.
