You could not give me a manual over my SMG, much much faster I might add as well, the hand simply cannot change gear as fast as a SMG in say even "ferocity #5" ,turn the traction control of and you get a SIXTH setting which IMO you simply dont need,,purely for track I would say and about 3-4 times faster changing speed on numbers 5-6.
Sooo much fun as well i might add, a friend had a manual hardtop and admitted my SMG convertible!!!! was much much faster.
