Twin clutches, etc. were out for quite awhile before everyone jumped on the bandwagon.
I love mine (SRM). Actually makes me "feel" like I know how to drive. :rolleyes:

sorry to revive the dead as I was searching on the SRM topic after reading posts/comments in other threads……


anyway pretty funny how now the new C7 vette is using SRM technology :ugh2:

New 911 Porsches (991) with the 7-speed manual also has SRM

so many sucky MT drivers can drive like the rest of us! :tup: :ugh:

You know why it's not catching on, because manual is a dying breed

I see the benefit in the auto as it makes downshifts seamless and must be easier on the tranny. If I had the MT I would turn it off too. Maybe slower shifting but I would prefer the heel toe.

The PDK's and DCM's are so efficient, no matter how well you can manually row those gears, you will NEVER get a better lap time than these new auto's. I track at Sebring, GT3's, BMW, etc. Yep, they are faster than me (assuming they have experience), ALL of them, not most, ALL say its unfortunate, the death of the manual. Yes, its quicker, your lap time gets better, etc. However, 99% of these cars NEVER see a track day so auto is it. Not as much fun, but faster.

The C7 has that feature as well

funny that's exactly what I said to resurrect this dead thread :icon17::tup:

While true, and I am part of that breed, I'm not dead yet.

The C7 is a temptress.

That may be part of it, but it's not like SRM is something the world is clamoring for.

NVM... can delete post.

Well, I agree that the world doesn't know it's there because Nissan sucks at press releases, and the world doesn't care because manuals are dying off

:iagree:

Love the feature and makes our cars unique!!
