| If you really want to get specific, race cars have "clutchless" manuals. I don't think you'll ever see a "race car" with the letter "D" on their shifter, so don't think of it as an automatic by any means. I have an automatic in my race car, and it used to be a manual as a street car (a very long time ago). Once I got past a certain point, the manual just became a handicap. I now have a 3 speed automatic with a reverse manual valve body and 4500 stall. This is as far away from your traditional automatic as you can get, but it still doesn't have a clutch.
I know this isn't at all what the original topic was about, but I just wanted to elaborate a little on that. |
