Supples’ Pub

You can follow the link for the full details on Blue Devil, but the jaw-dropping part is below. Say it ain’t so: an automatic transmission. If it is an automatic, they need to use a twin-clutch version, aka DSG. And they better put some well designed paddle shifters in it. I read about the paddle shifters they put in the new 6-speed auto in newer C6 Vettes and you have to rotate your wrist in to push with your thumb - how stupid is that.

The shocker? According to the unnamed dealer, none of GM’s manual transmissions are up to the task of handling all the ponies produced by the blown powerplant. The solution: it’s getting an automatic.
