I like it. I got the RST 6.2 option for the 6.2 motor and the 10 speed. It tows my enclosed trailer with a miata in it just fine. Speed limited to 110MPH but oh well. That what I have the ZL1 for anyways. Haha.

So, to me, if my only concern is maximum performance at the road course - then a really good sequential box, or a damn good auto is not such a bad idea. Part of me dies saying that, but if the best possible lap time is at stake - you gotta be honest with yourself.

IMHO, The best way to improve your heel to toe is to perfect each maneuver one at a time. You can do this while daily driving. first, learn to pick up your right foot at the right time, then, completely turn your right foot sideways (my knee also turns sideways), then, practice hitting the accelerator with your heel without touching the brakes. Keep practicing until you can hit 4K, 5K, 6K rpm by feel. Once you feel comfortable with that, start practicing your braking with your right toe. This will help you get used to how much brake pressure you need. I greatly improved my heel to toe by just practicing it during daily driving, even while making easy turns. You do not have to go fast all the time to practice Heel to toe.

I love rowing gears it is much more fun but I will pile on to the points already made, there is a reason Formula one cars shift with paddles/buttons..... manual row boxes are just too humanly inconsistent.

PS one of you guys buy a 2019 ZL1 1LE all options A10 in Hyper Blue and then ill buy it from you used 2 or 3 years from now lol
