    Ok, before you pull out the old "use the search' stick on me, I have used the function and believe it or not, "F1" will trigger quite a few results.

    Wondering if any of you guys have seen a good post or two with some real world do's-and-dont's for driving with the paddles.

    Many thanks all.

    I'll bite here.

    DO: Take off (from dead stop) with authority in throttle application (Don't feather the throttle in take off's)

    DO: Plant your throttle while upshifts (Don't lift when up shifting)

    DO: Engage "N" while waiting at a stop for light to turn green (Don't leave it in "1" while you know it's gonna take more than 10 seconds for the light to change)

    DON'T: Do not back up ramp in reverse (if it's possible)

    edit: one more DO: DO drive it like you stole it!!! :D

    How's this for a start and I'll let others chime in....
