Hehe, thanks. Its a good feeling to be part of a bmw only community

Yeah, I think it will be kinda fun to learn when to shift just right to avoid the lag. However, other than losing clutch control, do you think it can still perform well on the track ( I mean yeah its not going to be the greatest but how bad is it)? I am wondering if anyone has ever taken a streptronic on the track and compared times with a manual of similar configuration..
