The initial car in chalk is a manual!

RyanSD

In manual as well. That was cool although I could not understand a word

Check out what Walter Rohrl thinks about the car (English) and PDK vs Manual.

His interview starts at 8:20

My German isn't great, but from what I can make out, I think I heard 'primer' and 'clear coat'...

Seriously, looks better than I thought it would.

Watching him switch to MT was brutal. Clearly he wasn't enjoying it. He looked awkward and uncomfortable like a fish out of water.:roll eyes:

neanicu

LMAO!

robmypro

Damn i would love to Hitlerize that video.

TRAKCAR

He basically said car matches PDK and not manual.

neanicu

I've heard that fairy tale before with the .1 and look how that turned out...

TRAKCAR

Just translating....

neanicu

No disrespect to the Dutch journo,but I trust Walter a bit more...

TRAKCAR

The Dutch said it's too fast, too whatever same crap AP told us.
But for many it is too much to rev match properly, shift etc and stay out of the wall.

I mean a slip of the clutch foot and hang on!!
He said something to the effect of being overwhelmed in the manual.

neanicu

He's probably right in that sense,especially when you're really chasing lap times. I personally don't have that problem because I'm very slow even on the track. But I'm having a ton of fun and that's all that matters to me.

OP: Thanks for posting this video.

First decent footage I've seen of a chalk car. I'm debating between Chalk and Carrara White for the Sport Turismo I'm about to order as soon as allocation becomes available. Having seen this, I'm now leaning towards chalk.
