it's no problem if you're only cruising. if you're planning to "mash" on it, or just want a faster take off, i suggest clicking the "-" to downshift to 1st before taking off. that's what i do.
if you have a habit of putting the pedal to the medal in 2nd gear during take off, it might cause a problem in the long run.
