...manual gearbox is history. And anyone who thinks otherwise can stand over there alongside the rest of the Luddites, with their VHS video recorders, their black and white TV sets and their belief that the earth is flat.

Please do not ask for this, much like the current turbo obsession that works well on official MPG tests but when driven hard drink faster than a Rugby team at a free bar...

Steve's frustration at the fluffed changes in his TVR race car that wouldn't have happened had it been equipped with an automated shift brings us full circle too. Mightily annoying at the time for the man at the wheel. But a treat for anyone spectating and watching an angry Sutcliffe carve his way back through the field. Is it about now we start a campaign for manual gearboxes in F1?

So he's mainly right. For mainstream manufacturers and racers, wannabe or actual, for whom every second counts the manual is effectively dead. But I'll miss them when they're gone, and I'm sure I'm not the only one on here. Let the diehards' bleating commence: "three pedals good, two pedals bad!" I'll be joining in!

Tak doufám, že mi předplatné převedou alespoň na Speed (Top Gear nesnáším na papíře i v TV). A až předplacené peníze dojdou, čeká mě volba jestli Speed nebo Evo (IMHO lepší, ale jen jednou za dva měsíce)... Co vy pánové, máte někdo předplacený Autocar? A co plánujete místo něj?
