Default Sometimes I wish it was an automatic.

Especially when you get caught "with your pants down" in the wrong gear, trying hard to accelerate to beat the car that is trying to overtake you.

Well... I lost.
In my S2000.
With 240 hp.
To a Seat "whatever" Sport.
Damn!
Sorry guys.
Shame on me!

Ok.. I was in 4th gear accelerating from 65 km/h.
I FORGOT to shift down, I just put my foot down.


I know you're not supposed to accelerate when you'e overtaken, but in this particular case it wasn't dangerous.
It wasn't fun either.

To think it is a sin. To speak it should be punishable by death. Go stand in the corner.

just learn how to drive (or race) and youd never want an s2k to be automatic.
