I can sense a difference of opinion developing about Manual & Auto gearboxes, so not wanting to interfere with the excellent Turbo Thread I’ve started this one.
I will kick off with why aren’t all racing cars fitted with torque converters & auto boxes if they’re so good?
Shude suggested I compared my manual c180 to Vinay's auto c180 turbo and see which one feels the soggiest. I am surprised that Shude has had a chance to ride in the Turbo so soon, thus enabling him to make such a comparison! I don’t doubt my car is now less powerful, but what power I do have is in my direct control, the way it should me.
1 Flame grilled whopper coming right up.
