FC- I just had my first DE in 30 years (!!?) in my new Cayman S at Watkins Glen. I spent weeks fretting over being able to H&T smoothly. When we got out on the track my instructor had me pretty much leave it in 4th gear the whole time. The car has plenty of torque and I never came near the redline in 4th. We spent most of the time refining the line and getting used to being at speed. I'll work on H&T a little at a time off the track, but Pistol Pete is right- there are a lot more important things that you'll be working on in this DE than learning to H&T, so don't waste any sleep over it- enjoy. I spent most of my time in my Green group passing 911s, 928s and the occasional GT3! It's a great car.
