it's not the heat, it's the humidity. Group: Members Posts: 227 Member No.: 1,269 Joined: Feb 12th 2004 Location: Update Profile | I always used manual, the reason i never used automatic is because i hear Tokyo Pop's manual setup was off the "perfect" shift points... plus you have more control over the car with manual This post has been edited by LAN EVO IV on Feb 21 2004, 09:23 PM |

I thought that with auto you still have the ability to downshift, just not upshift? | ||

IDW Senior Member Group: Members Posts: 98 Member No.: 671 Joined: Aug 29th 2003 Location: Update Profile | u can downshift with auto but i said u cant double downshift. like on some turns such as the vturn in akagi, some people prefer to hit the downshift twice to get a tighter turn, with automatic it will not let u do a double downshift |

IDW Regular Member Group: Members Posts: 204 Member No.: 1,215 Joined: Feb 1st 2004 Location: Update Profile | Ah. My mistake. Sounds like there's some kind of time limit between downshifts on auto then. |

Reigning and Defending Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,723 Member No.: 625 Joined: Aug 12th 2003 Location: Seattle, WA | That's a really good point, and also one of the main reasons why people preffer manual over the auto tranny. |

That's not totally right. You can smash the brake, it'll DownShift, then you can DownShift as well. | ||

IDW Senior Member Group: Members Posts: 98 Member No.: 671 Joined: Aug 29th 2003 Location: Update Profile | yeah but if u smash the brake and do a double downshift u are ganna lose more speed than needed which is a bad thing. u would get the same effect and a better exit speed if u smash the brake then downshift a lil later that will only hold true for auto though in a manual trans u would just need the double shift |

Reigning and Defending Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,723 Member No.: 625 Joined: Aug 12th 2003 Location: Seattle, WA | Who really wants to rely on the brake for your car to downshift for you? I mean, wouldn't you rather have it easier and get a manual trans, which offers downshift and upshift at the time desired????? |

IDW Senior Member Group: Members Posts: 98 Member No.: 671 Joined: Aug 29th 2003 Location: Update Profile | meh i cannot shift, i never have been able to on any racing game, plus i do alright with an automatic tranny so i keep mine auto. just a mater of preference really. |
