automatic holding 2nd gear on track? or drive

ok im just wondering what other auto guys do because when i race i just let drive take over cause i got better times like that but im thinking its just better for the 1st to 2nd shift because 2nd to 3rd shift is a dog!! just wondering if anyone else holds the gear out in "2" until redline or a little above because seriously when my car shifts into 3rd it looses a ton of acceleration and feels weak. just seein what yall do
