no offense, must learn to drive properly before thinking to own a sport car. A super fast car without control is junk :P
True especially on auto trans High Powered Car...the brakes won't be able to stop it if the engine power is still transmit to the wheel when slowing down unless you drive like rex (always make full use of the brakes + manual shift to D3, 2 and L)....
In manual trans high power car, we can cut off the power to the wheel when the clutch is pressed in plus there is additional control like using the lower gear to maximise engine braking...
On the stop going up the half hill on manual trans, it is not so hard if your handbrakes are in good conditions. Practice the foot work will do...drive it a few days sure will get used to the manual car.
