I find if I dont blip the throttle on the down change it can upset the balance of the car as I get more engine braking from the rear. There's no problem with getting the car into gear as the T56 has carbon blocker rings and shift very nicely. It's just getting the car settled so it doesent feel like it's going to unhook the rear end on entry to the corner.

I guess it's probably more my poor cornering technique that I need to work on.

Cheers
