I totally agree. I've been racing for a long time but I'm still an amateur, not a pro and getting perfect braking while heel/toe downshifting is very difficult to do lap after lap. Not having to worry about the clutch or blipping the throttle on downshifts is the beauty of the sequential.

If you're ever in Northern California, you're welcome to take a few laps in the car once its done and sorted out, which should be in 6 weeks or so.
