ah f1 cars are auto! there are either full auto or there go up anor down the gears for you! you don't have to have a stick to be a sport driver hond up the corvett. alot of race cars are auto like some rally cars the lmp sport cars and like i said f1 are semi auto! i just think its dumb to say the all autos are slow yes your not going to make a 500 hp car though a honda auto but for the stuff you drive around hear a auto is fine ..
