Ideally the controlling of any machine should be as straightforward as possible. It should do what the operate wants it to do as simply and straightforwarldy as possible with as little rigamarole as possible to get a simple command as "go forward", "go backwards" or "park".
For this reason automatic transmissions are fundamentally superior to manual transmissions.
Stale pasta and bad bait.
>Powersliding through corner
>Modulating throttle to control slide
>Loosen up on the throttle when slip angle increasing too quickly
>Automatic trans decides to upshift
>Sudden traction; suspension unbalanced
This is why automatics are dangerous.
Yes, and the control shouldn't be hidden away behind layers of abstraction and lack of control

Manuals don't do that.

only thing autos are good for are businessmen pretending to be racecar drivers on the motorway in their mercs and 2 speeds in top fuel dragsters

Nigga what
i heard dragsters use stone age auto transmissions because they're built tough as fuck

Well with an auto you can just not worry about, but if youre' capable, mannys give you absolute control over the powertrain... Which is nice, desu...
the keyword here being "controlling", not "let the machine decide what fucking ever"
>in a race
dual clutch =/= single cuck

Apparently this makes sense to some people.
how's that limited human response time again, single cuck?
>limited human response time again
speak for yourself sub human lmao
a single clutch and a single cuck, match made in heaven
automatics are replacing manuals and there is nothing you can do about it
>mfw clutchcucks literally pay more for slower shifting option
