[@phoenix75888]

It's not about the best vest version of each car. It's about comparing apples to apples instead of apples to oranges. The CTR and ITS are only developed with manual transmissions. Why would they compare the the DCT version against a manual? The DCT/auto transmissions are like handicap advantages.

You're not testing any real skill by driving an automatic and it's a very simp like move to do so.
