> If you really want to geek out, do a NASCAR Racing Experience. Those clutches and transmissions are awful in comparison (they’re not supposed to be optimized for feel). They’re mushy, the clutch throw is long and very stiff, and the shifter takes forever to move into gear. The base model economy car stick shift I learned in (‘91 Mazda derived Ford Escort) feels like a luxurious precision instrument in comparison.
As of 2022 they have the fancy five speed sequential stuff and the clutch is not always necessary.

- Moto7451 4y agoYup. The new cars are very fancy compared to what they’ll let you rent for a few hot laps. If/When the new cars show up I plan on doing the driving experience again.
