Default A6 issue

Ok im sure that this has been explained before.. But i can never find anything using the search funct for some reason. So the deal is, last night made about 5 passes at the drag strip. Now when i stop and start to go the car feels off, the 1st to 2nd shift is the main problem. the car feels like it lunges and when i goes into 2nd the rpms shoot up to about 4k almost as if its slipping? Any suggestions and pricing would be much appreciated.

Try doing it in S mode using paddles but it sounds like its slipping.

Did you let the car do its own shifting at the track or use the paddles?
