3..2..1..

The A10 is an amazing transmission. But I prefer the proven Tremec, especially future maintenance cost-wise.

...and then beat it with the A10 after that but they didn't have data logging equipment on board... Comes down to what you prefer.

I don't blame you.

Back in the day, autos were garbage. Some still are.

DCTs are great, but now some of the TC autos like the A10 here and the ZF8 are nearly as good.

The only thing manuals are good for these days is making a slow car fun.

after the engineers massaged the tire pressure and suspension, imagine if they did that with the manual car

Lol

They are both good

His official lap sucked in the auto. Watch his line/exit though 8/9. He is WAY tight in the auto, which slowed his exit onto the front straight.
