And where are you from? And how old? Not “do you” but just if you know how.

I’m in the US, mid 30s and can (and do) drive a manual transmission.

    Modern, high end race cars are automatics. Low end or lighter cars will be manual.

      No, they’re sequential manuals*. Unless you’re talking about drag racing, where automatics are common.

      *Edit: Or they can also be sequential semi-automatics if you want to be extra pedantic. But personally I’d classify a transmission based on whether the driver has to select the desired gear, or if the computer selects the appropriate gear without driver input, because that’s the thing that matters in the end.
