You should consider elaborating and/or providing a basis for your position. All Nascars are manual because letting a computer control the shifting at that speeds is ludicrous. But let's look at my first Google hit for regular cars: https://www.budgetdirect.com.au/blog/manual-vs-automatic-car-transmission-pros-cons.html "Better fuel efficiency Overall, manual transmission engines are less complex, weigh less, and have more gears than automatics. The end result is that youll end up getting more kilometres out of the petrol you pump in than you would with an automatic. Manual transmissions have been known to save drivers between 5% and 15% on their fuel costs." "Better control Automatic transmissions are designed to choose the best gear for any situation, but they tend to err on the side of caution, shifting to too high of a gear and wasting engine power. At the same time, they are built to respond to conditions as they are encountered, which doesnt allow for drivers to either anticipate an oncoming condition, or to purposely select a lower gear for an added boost of power. Manual transmissions give drivers greater control over the vehicle." --- Align your chakras, it starts with your breathing. http://www.arfalpha.com/ScienceOfBreath/ScienceOfBreath.htm ...
