SMG = Novelty

It’s fun for awhile, but I’d rather have full control. I got a good laugh out of that video though with the MONSTER tach next to the gauges. The BMW gauges are easy to see already, then you add SMG and a loud exhaust, no reason he shouldnt be able to shift within 200rpm of redline EVERY TIME.

And yes, I’ve driven SMG, and I can honestly say I would probably buy it on a daily, but not on a track car. (Plus it’s just one more thing to go wrong I cant service myself).
