Tips feel doggy off the line because in auto mode they start in 2nd gear. If you want 1st you either have to shift to Manual and click down to 1st, or floorboard the throttle in auto, at which point it will jump down to 1st.
An undocumented feature of the Tip is that in auto mode if you jab the throttle to the floor and quickly release while braking for a turn, it will jump down to whatever gear is appropriate in the turn (jump from 4th to 2nd, for example). It won't do this in Manual, requiring you to sequentially downshift through each gear.
