I have never known anyone like this. Are you talking about literal aliens? Did they visit you in the dead of night and dress you down for downshifting? Did they probe you? They did didn't they, a bunch of them probed you and now you're pissed off.
>>29135348The schizos moved on to talking about macpherson struts and other things they aren't qualified to talk about as the basement dwellers they are, and I guess OP is nostalgic for all the retardation usually present in manual vs automatic threads? Sage.
Idk why people are so autistic about stopping a manual. I honestly don't think there's a wrong way other than straight up braking into a stall.
>>29135385Because manual offers too many options and people are bound to act tribalistic over literally anything. The pro photography scene acts the same when it comes to manual mode on a camera. In the end, when I'm teaching manual to someone I just present you with all the options you have when coming to a full stop. The car is yours so I don't care if you prefer to cruise in neutral instead of engine braking.
You cunts obsess over this like you're debating the correct method of sucking cock to completion just drive the fucking car
Sometimes I neutral coast because chill. Sometimes I downshift because blipping throttle to rev match is fun as fuck.
>>29135326My pdk downshifts in sport mode. It sounds pretty cool desu
>>29135481>pdkThe fuck is a pdk?
>>29135570a sad attempt at fishing for validation
>>29135404all right that got me
>>29135385>people are so autisticIt's Americans. Americans don't generally drive manual, so when one does, they often go into autistic sperg rampages about le proper way to drive manual, because they think they have le cool special ability that billions of 95 IQ africans and indians can do
>>29135326>Cheaper to do the brakes than the clutch boyo!!!my car is easy to work on, I do not care
me when i rip the 100 ms zf8 gearchange and throttle cut backfire into somebody's open window
Bitch just stop the fucking car however you want why the fuck do you care what others think?Yes engine braking puts load on both the transmission and engine, but those things are build with taking substantially higher load in mind. Yes it will increase wear. Shifting from Neutral to an appropriate gear out of reaction to a sudden accident could cost you more than just repair.Brake pads and fluids are cheap. You do you.
>>29135326I only downshift like that on track. Coast in neutral on the street.I see no reason to do that on the street.
I broke a Wilwood balance bar and lost my brakes. I had to downshift to slow down.2 hour drive.You'd be surprised how well a car slows down downshifting above 5,000+ rpm with a V8.
>>29135326Are these people real? What do they do if they have to just reduce their speed for curves or traffic?
>>29135481I’ve noticed that regardless of what mode you’re in (typically sport let’s say), the off-throttle crackles and overrun burble are much spicier when the pdk is in manual mode than keeping it in auto mode and downshifting under the same conditions.It’s pretty spectacular and I wonder if they intentionally did it this way or if it’s just a happy acccident?
>>29136665>Shifting from Neutral to an appropriate gear out of reaction to a sudden accident could cost you more than just repair.Sudden accident huh, whats the chance you're a lane switching insect in some POS Honday or Chevy (non truck)
>>29135385>I honestly don't think there's a wrong way other than straight up braking into a stall.I did this with my moped [spoiler]and broke my clutch doing it[/spoiler]
