first gear auto trans?

Anyone use first gear on the auto trans? I kinda find it useless. I drive everyday in M+- mode pretending I had a manual

It feels to me like first gear is only good for from 0-10 mph aside if you want to race. After that I'm just making a lot of noise and over revving my engine. In the school zone for example, the speed limit is 15 mph yet I do it in second gear.

Also, the shifts on my car seem to not be as nice from 1-2 then 2-3, especially when down shifting. Going from 2-1 feels super slow and laggy.

One time I was turning and went from 3->2->1 and when shifting from 2->1 the car kinda stopped(lag from downshifting) and so I hit the throttle and I ended up super accelerating away xD.


Anyone use second? I tried using first but am having trouble adjusting.
