Saw 'em in R & T, but the web page just has red. Anyone have pics of these in Yellow? URL? Pics Please?

Nothing that comes in a pretty yellow Ferrari replacement part box is cheap! T308 <<Don't like buttons. The only button should be the start.>> Not sure how I feel about a reverse button. The Aston uses one, which means that my race car has one too. <<For reverse a simultainous right/left paddle pull (neutral) and then a left/right/left paddle.>> It would never work. Well, it would work after you went thru the sequence a half dozen times. Trust me, the computer is so damned picky that it would demand the most precise timing of paddle clicks in order to shift into reverse. I'm sure that the planets would have to be properly aligned and and an exact number of dogs would need to be baying at the moon for the TCU to accept the *request to shift* to reverse as opposed to down/up/down.

Well, whilst Tiger knows a great deal about this, I do not. So, what is the difference? (and don't get snotty with me, Mark - it's an honest question). Surely both race and street applications are designed as driver aids to enable more efficient shifting, no more or less (except in terms of relative effectiveness)? ...or am I missing something?

The practical advantage for street cars is only the elimination of the manually actuated clutch, and offering a so-called sporting automatic shifting option, widely expanding the potential owner pool to less involved, more lifestyle-seeking, purchasers (there may be a small warranty/reliabilty carry-on as well). ...Or does anyone really see a need for 15ms gearchanges a street car? > >> ...Even you have to comprehend the distinct purposes in using the > >> auto/semi-auto sequential transmission in street versus race [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > ...Or does anyone really see a need for 15ms gearchanges a street car?

If you match revs you needn't use the clutch at all... should get you down to 19-18, no sweat. ...But then you get to buy a new gearbox every 600miles. <<If you match revs you needn't use the clutch at all... should get you down to 19-18, no sweat.>> You're kidding, right?

That depends: Only god knows which part you find implausible... <<That depends: Only god knows which part you find implausible...>> 1. Which god? 2. The part where you two are joking about being able to shift a standard transmission faster than a paddle-shifter designed for the street, let alone faster than a race car driver using a race box, let alone almost as fast as a real, formula 1 tranny. C. ><<That depends: Only god knows which part you find implausible...>> >1. Which god? I clearly didn't specify.

Yeah... *No*. *I* was dead *serious*. I think Bob may have been joking though, I've never actually seen him drive. ...Once again though, you've missed the point comprehensively, rather handily making the joke yet again about you: "Congratulations". <<...But, I suppose Prometheus would be appropriate in this case.>> Prometheus is not a god. He is a Titan. <<...Once again though, you've missed the point comprehensively>> I asked a question based on the fact that your *joke* was too ludicrous to be funny. Of course, you couldn't just confirm your intention. No, you had to continue your little schoolyard antics. <<Congratulations>> >[...] <Yawn> <<<Yawn>>> I believe that your response to such a response was something like, "Oh, and what else could you say?" Get over yourself already, man. Have a drink or stop drinking. Do something different. Perhaps you could sit down and have a chat about Ferraris with some interested parties. That might be fun, eh? C. ><<<Yawn>>> >I believe that your response to such a response was something like, "Oh, and >what else could you say?" ...No respect, at all, for veracity, eh? >Get over yourself already, man. Have a drink or stop drinking. Do something >different. Perhaps you could sit down and have a chat about Ferraris with some >interested parties. That might be fun, eh? Indeed. Alas, it is not to be here. Here, discussion of Ferrari or Ferraris is woefully subservient to logrolling, glad-handing, materialistic self-aggrandizement, and an exceptionally insipid version of Follow the Queen. ...Woefully. <<...No respect, at all, for veracity, eh?>> Considering how you love to leap on everyone else's errors, I find it amusing how you ignore your own. <<Indeed. Alas, it is not to be here.>> Then move along already. Don't let us bind you here. C. T308 wrote: <<Not even a little T-bar for reverse>> An engineer with a sick sense of humour designed that.
