Manuals are only fun in small little cars you can throw around corners
Manual is shit for commuting and drag racing
I don't understand the obsession with manual transmissions

It's just fun, local Z shop has been trying to convince me to auto swap my car for the strip/street light races but screw that.

In my fox it's like you said gives me control. In the truck it dramatically increses fuel economy as well as letting me tow more.

You can't fucking stall after you've already been moving for a few seconds, especially if he was flooring it trying to race you.
At least try to make better bait, autotragic fag.

nigga what

> auto drag racing
But why
>>
>>14854111
Because ALL high level drag racing is in autos, Anon. Drag racing is less about being 0.00001 second quicker on one race and more about being consistently quicker.

Translation: I have never driven manual in my life and am just assuming things. This entire fake story reeks of this anywhere

That what they are in 18Wheelers not in a normal truck like a F150 you dumbass.
>>
>Stalling a car 2 or 3 seconds into a drag race
Ok.
>>
>>14854120
That's over generalised and plainly not true. Clutchless transmissions like Lenco and Jericho seem to replace the conventional automatic transmission around the six second mark. Planetary gears go out of favour when the engine is producing case bursting, torque converter ballooning power.

i don't understand why people think larger cars can't corner
most racing cars are wide as fuck. and huge

If my 5 cylinder Jetta wasn't manual I would have blown my head off a long time ago.
It turns it from something I should hate into an old friend.
