I would have to agree with Timgco, nothing worse then being a little off/ or slow with the clutch in a bad place like down a hill on ice,
and that second to long in nuetral and your in a 360 spin,
Dtotal control is using todays technolagy, to save your ass. My totoya has a bunch of dents that may have been avoided if it was an auto with traction control. Both my curent vehicles are manual, and it is time for the automatic, getting to old to be ****ting my pants. exceptoins would be Porche 911, or the likes, then the manual is the fun it desreves to be.
