Viper Racing - auto and manual makes no difference

5 posts by 5 people · 21 Oct 1998 - 23 Oct 1998

I can run the same lap times in each mode. I was hoping manual trans gave you an edge some how but I actually run more consistant faster lap times with automatic than manual. Its less to think and concentrate on. I'm in the 1:00.5s now. Damn, I'm so close to a :59 I can taste it. :) Wish they would have put some sort of penalty for using the automatic. Oh well.

Oh there is....but it lies below the 1:00 mark..... :) Still looking for some upstart to send us a ghost car lap breaking the office record of 58:73. Owen
