I don't think there's any serious race car that's manual except for NASCAR n FORMULA D.
Paddleshift isn't your dads auto.
Its a serious piece of sports equipment aimed at serious driving enthusiasts.
Few will admit it. But if you do your research? You will find lots of info on these types of trannies superior capabilities.  |
To that note, just because it has paddle shifters it's not always an automatic. Same with not having a clutch pedal
As far as I know if it has gears that mesh together, and a clutch (even controlled electronically) it's still a "manual". if it shifts itself in any operating mode, it's an automatic.
