Av., when i say you get slower response, understand what i'm talking about, because i didn't make it clear.
i often rapid fire downshift on the paddles in M. i do this usually when coming to a stop or near stop, and i downshift more than 2 gears at once, often 4 or 5. i do this by rapid-firing the down paddle to my target gear. this is a technique you can use to skip the rev-matching for each downshift... if you rapid-fire down quick enough, it will save all the rev-matching until the target gear is reached and you stop downshifting the paddle.
this is a great technique to avoid overusing the clutch and keeping clear of all the pauses and wait-time from the rev-matching. but you can't do this with the stick. it won't downshift rapid-fire style. this is what i'm talking about. mmmkay.
