The point of going out on the track is to “drive the track” but with the manual, sometimes it feels like you’re “driving the transmission.”
The challenge that would be most rewarding to accomplish would be mastering "driving the track" at the same time as "driving the transmission" and I'd personally want to be able to master both.
