Automatics will prevent any possibility of a money-shift, BUT it WILL also shift at redline (unless you have software) and kickdown mode overrides all other modes and upshifts no matter what. So, you do not have 100% control.

The autos I have driven never shift at redline, they just bounce until I shift. At least in the 350Z. I will have to wait until break in is over to try it on the 335.
