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.

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