    Alright then, so does that mean F1 cars should be considered automatics since there is no clutch pedal? I mean after all, all youre doing is touching paddles.

    The Porshce has an automatic "mode". As well as a manual "mode". Do some research on PDK and youll respect the car a lot more. It does not do the car justice to just consider it an automatic..

    Just like I said in the rep I gave you. You're comparing an F1 car to a street car. You're a dumbass.

    I was exaggerating an idea to get a point across, dumbass.


    All that Im saying is that you cant just look at this car and dismiss it a regular automatic that happens to have some optional shifter paddles. Its so much more than that, and some truely awesome engineering went into it.

    Thats all.

    Yeah, but it's still auto. Just like SMG is awesome, but auto.
