Just returned from a factory visit last week. I must say the factory campus is enormous and the guided tour was quite the mind bending...
No. Holding fixed RPM from stopped will result in considerable unnecessary clutch slippage while the TCU does its best to make a smooth...
Well spoken Greg, although purely may be too harsh. As pointed out by Mr. Spock, myths often have some small but misunderstood basis in fact.
An internet myth popular among the guys who personally prefer a manual but not consistent with the facts. Mostly correct. Last price I saw for...
Controlling clutch movement with the gas peddle *only* applies to launch from standstill. All other throttle movement while shifting should be...
Just like any dry clutch transmission with a manually operated stick and clutch peddle, there is no consistent RPM breakdown which always yields a...

Judging by your choice of cars, it's obvious you are a gentleman of unusual sensitivity and high intelligence. Congratulations! It's a great car...
Similarities between changing out a manually operated 360 clutch and an F1 clutch are misleading. Even DIY changing a manually operated clutch is...
As always, everything said above by Skidkid is absolutely correct. The only addition I can think of is the fact that there have been several...
When starting from stopped, the 360 F1 system does a remarkably efficient job of slipping the clutch until a very smooth transition to full...
