I can safely say I've never been out on track and wished I had more power in 1st.

Never driven it but I would guess it wouldn't be full power anyway, not enough traction.

The only time I use first is from moving off from a stand still and I'm almost instantly into 2nd after getting a bit of momentum. Unless I'm having a traffic light drag race
