any safe way to shift a stock auto?

I only downshift to 1st when I'm going realllly slow...cuz it is very hard on the tranny if you do it and you hear your tires squeak...lol...

i love to hammer it half way through first WHAM! you're into your seat, it also sounds incredibly mean..heh...but you gotta be careful shifting into 2...if you do it with your foot on the gas you gotta do it at the perfect moment and you chirp the tires, do it too late and owww...when I shift up I normally take it up to 5k (6k is yellow) and let off the gas and casually push into 2...

I used to do the 1-2-1-2-D in our foxbody...but its got a modded tranny...its mainly cuz when my dad drove it he liked to shift it through and he ended up blowing OD twice..lol...but like i said, not really to start adding tranny parts to my car, but i should find out how long my tranny warrenty is good for...esp. since i have the extended warrenty..
