Apparently you are not supposed to be able to get it into 1st by design. But I have found a way that gets it into 1st every time. I don't use it much but noticed it happen so played around until I figured out what makes it go to 1st off the line in SST. I have a 2000 LS V8 Sport...Heres what I do:
Have it in D5 while at a stop
Hit the gas to make it rev up higher than 3000 RPM then switch it into SST (gotta be quick at it or yer just in 2nd as normal)
...it's in 1st
...then you can wait till whenever you want to switch it up to 2nd.
I don't think it makes much of a difference, but if you are in the proper place to want to try and get the most out of the tranny off the line...might make a diff in numbers...
