DCT is manual if it's in a car I like.
>>28104574>2 parallel automated manualsIt's a really fucked up frankenstein not-manual that works breddy gud
How the fuck do you use paddle shifters? Like I'm in the middle of a turn and I need to shift to second gear. How the fuck are you supposed to do it while turning the wheel? Also my paddles turn with my wheel so I never know where they are while turning.
>>28104605Also paddles basically make your gearbox sequential which pretty much negates any advantage of manually shifting, why do people even make these things?
>>28104605You use the actual stick and push it up or down
>>28104607>paddles basically make your gearbox sequentialKek, ROoDLAMHAHA even
>>28104605on the street in a street car? leave it in automatic modeon the track? you shouldn't be moving your hands around, leave them at 3 and 9 o'clock, if you can't leave your hands in those positions then you aren't sitting close enough to the wheel
>>28104574At best I would consider it sequential.
>>28104676>leave them at 3 and 9 o'clockYou can't drive
>>28104574I love my DSG car but I would feel like a gigantic faggot if I tried to claim it's a manual.
>>28104607>Also paddles basically make your gearbox sequentialnani
>>28104605>I'm in the middle of a turn and I need to shiftsounds like you just suck at driving
>>28104574From a technical standpoint it's much more a manual than it is an automatic (no torque converter, no planetary gears)From a driving standpoint it's NOT a manual.
Honda made automated manual transmissions as far back as the 80's. DCTs are slop. The best auto box I have ever driven was in a 1986 Honda Accord and it shifts faster and is more responsive than any electronically controlled transmission, DCT or not.
>>28105165>You can't drive
Manual transmission: gearbox can't shift gears, gearbox can't select which gear to be in.Semi-automatic transmission: gearbox can shift gears, gearbox can't select which gear to be in.Automatic transmission: gearbox can shift gears, gearbox can select which gear to be in.It's just that simple.
>>28105288Kek weeblets are so fucking delusional goddamn
>>28104605be in the right gear before you enter the corner?
>>28104605Why not shift to second BEFORE entering the turn?
>>28104605Downshift before the corner. Jesus christ I got shit on for not doing this during my driver's lessons.
>>28104574>Automatedlolyou lost
>>28104605Wow what a woman
>>28105204It's not automatic either if you can manually shift them.
>>28108231>if you can manually shift themYou can't, though. The "manual" mode or using the paddles is still just an electronic signal. It's a mere request to shift, that the computer can refuse if you do it retardedly.
manuel transmissionjust a spic in the passenger seat shifting gears for you
>>28108741Arm movements are just an electronic signal from your brain to you muscle. The human body is DCT.~100% of solid matter is just empty space on an atomic level btw
>>28108895The difference is if you want to put your hand in a wood chipper, you don't have another brain in your head overriding your decision. The risk/reward of driving a manual is part of the appeal to many people.
>>28104574No one cares about your semantics
