Totally agree that PDK car is faster than manual on track, but I'm not tracking for money or price, and not a lot of cars in my advanced group can pass me, I guess I will stick to my manual RS on track for now.
I have PDK in my GTS CC, only just driving it in auto mode so far, will try to shift it and see if I like it.
As for now, I still prefer to buy my sport cars in manual, as they will stop making manual one day and I don't want to look for a used one. Plenty of time to buy PDK or auto-shift sport cars, they are everywhere.

Well plenty of time to buy manual cars too, they spent like 100 years making manual cars and there are certainly plenty to be picked from
When I am on the track, my target is the car in front, I HAVE to pass it no matter what, that's why I have to be fast.
But when i get to the front with no cars to be passed. I lose concentration, my mind wanders of and make all sorts of mistakes But that's also the perfect time to drive a manual car, all sorts of time for me to kill.

Driving back home ( 2.5h ) I took the GT4 through the country roads . There the manual was wonderfully entertaining . It has it place for spirited drives on open roads .

Manual on country roads.
Like this? Drove through empty highway on my way from the track to home in the 911R. Just past 4000km on the clock now.
