Yes.

When you start LC you are in manual mode. It will auto shift the gears as long as you hold down the throttle. As soon as you release the throttle, the auto shifting stops and you remain in manual mode in whatever gear you went up to during the LC run.

So if you release the gas too early, the run will be short.

It doesn't sound like you're doing anything wrong.
