Hi All,
Can anyone please tell me the following, which regarding the SMG2 w/ drivelogic?
1) With the Gradient Assistance, will the car slide backward (even a bit) when in a uphill situation?
2) What are the difference of the 6 stages?
3) When comparing to a MT gear, which one is better? If you are familiar with MT, what will you choose?
Many thanks in advance.

In regard with the question as to which one is better you can take couple whings into consideration:
-MT is about 0.1 seconds quicker than the SMG (although the SMG shifts are technically faster)
-SMG is kool in two ways:
-automatic and when you want it to be shifted out of 6th you can do it hella of easy and quick
-once in a while you want to have your right hand free in trafic with the cell phone or perhaps holding your girls hand
-MT : YOU FEEL THE REAL POWER IN YOUR HANDS.....you can't really call a car a "sports car" if it indeed is automatic.
