Re: Stick or Paddles...

Well, when I was young good clutches were mechanical and you ran an 11" Borg & Beck 12 spring with three prongs. If you tried to hold it at a light very long your left leg would start to shake. But it worked. I read too many post about guys fryin todays clutches at the track after 5-10 passes. Hydroliclly operated??? What a joke.
I don't think the clutches today can handle high hp, high torque engines. While I never had any problems putting my vette up on jack stands and changing a clutch disc or throwout bering in the driveway, I don't really care to do that anymore.

I have a current CTS with the auto and manual and once I got use to always pushing it [most of the time :-)] to go up in gear I liked it and the automatic is great when you get stuck in stop n go driving. If you're going to drag race it the automatic is the only way to go because it is far more consistant. Bracket racing today is about being consistant, not the fastest. The automatic with the manual mode gives you the best of both worlds. Just buy the extended warranty as automatics are more expensive to rebuild than manuals as a rule.

I don't know. It was early in the morning. Dammit, the j key, l key and the spacebar are spacing out on me. Plus, the cooling fan isn't working properly. Guess that's the downfall of a 5 year old laptop...
