You should shift from 1st to 2nd, then to 3rd, and then 4th if needed. Best of luck!

but uhh..never been to the track myself (going to Bandimere ont he 16th to take some runs) but just going from other threads that ppl have put...

avoid water box..spin the tires to clean them..hold at designated rpm (no clue what rpm exactly..3000ish?)..slip the clutch (not dump it or you will spin er'where)..then just go thru the gears. And when you get to the end..rip the e-brake and slide sideways across the line as if you were on Forza.
