the 370Z has done this for several years, and i'm sure other cars as well. appears easy to do on the e-gas cars, and race cars with sequential manual transmissions have been using mechanical blippers for years. e-gas has the added benefit of, as you note, actually matching rpm (the 370z does this, and i preusme the others). on our cars the downshift into 2nd is a bit more aggressive than into other gears; my local track is all 2nd and 3rd gear so i would just set it up for that downshift. i may just have to ask for an auto-blip for christmas.
