no... i actually want it for for race use.... my project is more like a track whore shop truck than a "normal" pt car.... i absolutely must have a manual trans, even though i did think long and hard about a paddle shiffted auto... but decided against it for a few reasons. i really like the idea of 6 speeds to get to 1:1...... i kinda gave up road racing bikes and started my truck project.... im seeing lots of pros with the seq gearbox... and the only "major" downfall being the price..... but i just sold my track bike....so im 3/4 there
