The end of an era! You might think manual transmissions aren't relevant anymore, but they've made significant improvements even in the last 20 years over their predecessors. I spoke with Cadillac's engineers regarding the Tremec TR6060 manual transmission used in both of the Blackwings to learn how a modern manual transmission differs from those of old. We'll be focusing on ten clever features of modern manual transmissions, covering flywheels, clutches, synchros, rev-matching, flat-foot shifting, gear lockouts, skip-shifting, and so much more - wow!
