[quote=“JaysGreenLX,post:23,topic:33668"”] I’d rather it be a manual. :wiggle: [/quote] The clutch is the important part, which it has, if it had a stick however it would take longer to shift than it would to wind out a gear. You can’t use a regular shifter on a car that fast, plus it’s good to have both hands on the wheel when taking sharp turns doing well over 100 mph. ---
