Ferrari Mailing List: Re: No more Ferraris with auto-transmissions??

[Tom Reynolds (kjtar]

I did that with my '94 Miata R sometimes. 

Didn't have the guts to try it with 'Mario', however.

Many thousands of new and old diesel trucks without syncro transmissions and drivers often do NOT use clutch
to shift, just slide from gear to gear. You get accustomed to the engine sound to match gears.

No syncros?  There is a modern racing transmission that is syncro absent.  Worth 3 seconds in a Lotus Super Seven.  But that said, I gotta concede, counselor, that this trans aint like the trans on that 1924 Amilcar.  heh heh
