Reaction time.
Coordinating clutch/throttle from a stand still/control from spinning out.
Shift points foot,hand,eye coordination.
Hit the shifts as fast as you can and on time.
Make sure each shift hits next gear,how many can power shift into 3rd. 
Doing all this while keeping the car from doing a 360.
It's the only way to keep our ZR-1's real, shows your power level and driver skill.

Dom, if you're reading this, I just saw a C6 make a "left turn" on a re-run of "PINKS". Made me think of your experience. Scary!!
