[LAC] VWs with AWD?

[Larry C Leung]

OR it could be sequential such as the Ferrari F355 with is a 6 sp gear
box with electro-hydraulic self actuating clutch. Same idea as on an F1
car, or a motorcycle (only bigger). On the F355, the car is actually
quicker than the 6 sp version, as the clutching takes about half the time
of even Maranello's best test drivers.
