Not really. .6 seconds isn't that aggressive of a shift. It's not a lazy shift but it's far from a power shift too. Can someone datalog the following? Run the car up near redline is 2nd, get off the gas, then floor it again, within .2-.6 seconds and see if this occurs then? I bet it does. I use that type of driving to set the car (or unsettle it) by moving weight around, etc...
