Default C7 M7 question

Hello all, good to be back. Just picked up a 2016 C7 Stingray (m7)and I am wondering if they have the "no lift shift" option on this model. I have seen the "launch assist" mentioned in the manual, but no mention of the NLS. Don't want to experiment with this to learn it doesn't have it....lol
Thanks in advance

Thanks, so as I understand it, you keep the gas pedal floored, then as soon as you begin to shift, and engage the clutch, the program holds the rpm just below rev limiter. Is that correct?

Great feature once you get used to it. Definitely a great sound and will help those 1/4 mile times.

Never tried it either. Seems hard on the clutch and trans. Please let us know how it works.

Wow, I bet this is fun, I bet it screams!

How does this work? What's the procedure for No Lift Shifting?


Who of you have actually shifted like this?
