Founder Popular Post Beanoir™ Posted October 10, 2017 Founder Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2017 I love the manual vs. PDK debates! I had had some fun with this car, but the PDK made it too easy to drive, tamed the beast so to speak. The previous variant and the CR was far more rewarding having to work it, digging deep and timing down shifts perfectly. I don’t give a s**t about lap times and have no interest in nanny gadgets to assist my lack of skills - I’d rather learn without them covering up. For thrills the manual CR gave me more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidepod Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Perhaps you can slam a manual through the gate in under 8mS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidepod Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I wouldn’t class a double clutch box as a “nanny device”, simply a step fwd in design/tech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad for those lap times eh The GT2 RS that murdered the 'ring record was not a manual. There's no right or wrong between PDK and manual, in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Beanoir™ Posted October 10, 2017 Founder Share Posted October 10, 2017 Absolutely agree there’s no wrong or right. Just the right tool for the right job, or the right tool for the wrong job, depending on which side of the bed your toast is buttered...or however it goes. Quite frankly and kind of ironcically topical, I’ll take this car that drove past me earlier today over anything else available on the planet right now...
