I went from 5AT to 6MT as well, honestly I don't think it's any more fun to drive. Feels the same except now I have shift the gears myself lol.

Subscribed for sure!

Any unusual reason why you switched to 6MT from a TT 5AT?

I really can't wait to see this done.

Lol..

Basically because the auto always had problems on the track (would go into limp mode, overheat) and I was just sick of it. Decided it was time for something else.

Limp mode or safe mode is where the car goes into a mode that prevents damage from occurring. If the transmission gets too hot it will stay in 4th gear and not allow any up or down shifting causing me having to get off the track and wait for it to cool down.
