Unfortunately, I still have not run a CVT. But, one of my instructors at the autocross schools I run had a student with one and described to me what it was like.
Apparently, there's a big delay from the time you hammer the gas and the engine gets moving. If that's the case, and any of the other gears can "lessen" that affect, that's certainly what I would use.
Theoretically, once you learn how early to hit the gas, the car can be very quick since it's supposed to stay in the power band.
I can't recall if he tried to left foot brake or not, but maybe that's an option. I just know that some of the newer drive-by-wire systems won't let you brake and gas simultaneously (Audi).
Hope this helps some.
