Good driver's visual aid for track driving.  You know, manual inputs, not just sitting there letting autopilot do all the work...

I was noticing the new 911 GT3 has the shifter on the console, activated exactly the same as a sequential manual box (naturally).

Made me think if that motion as opposed to steering wheel paddles could make the experience feel more connected?. I know one wouldn't drive this way, but if you treated that PDK like it was a sequential manual with lift offs, it would probably feel the same way driving it!

Just an observation. I prefer it over paddles, and my gut is rarely wrong with this stuff.

What do you guys think?

ps - I see the paddles still exist.
