CAMARO6 - View Single Post - M6 no lift shift : loud backfire upon shift? Am i doing it right?

Just found this section, maybe you guys can help me.

2017 SS, manual transmission. All stock, 2000 miles, always run premium gas.

So I went to the drag strip last week and tried no lift shift for the first time. While it did seem to function and do it's job correctly, every time I would use it, right when I would shift I would get a loud backfire from the car. I thought I was doing it wrong so I stopped. I tried it again when I went back to the drag strip this weekend, and same thing, a loud backfire when I shift. I have the car in competition mode, I am shifting at around 6200-6300 rpm (not hitting the rev limiter), and I am holding the gas to the floor for the whole pass. Not sure what I am doing wrong? But I am afraid of breaking something with the car backfiring like this. When i shift normally, I never get these loud backfire like sounds.

Has anybody else tried this no lift shift feature? Is it supposed to do that loud backfire like sound?
