What a shame, I will miss this!! Although I'm not sure how the "North" layout compares to the full.

Tyre model isn't changing yet, though there is a new transmission model.  That won't affect the Mazda much since it's semi-auto.  Just in case something does change, I now have a decent baseline to feel the changes with.  My serious setup work will start tommorrow.

Or perhaps it will!  Having to re-learn downshifting in the Mazda and Radical.  It's taken quite a few laps and practicing, but I think I'm getting it fairly reliably now.

What's different? Do you have to use clutch or lift on up changes?

It depends on the car.  Mazda and Radical use sequential dog-boxes, so you don't need to use the clutch after the start.  You don't need to lift when upshifting in them either.  But, when downshifting, if you are holding too much throttle on under brakes (or not enough) it won't shift.  You can't simply hold half throttle to keep the car stable while downshifting anymore, you need to blip each gear change.

The Radical was harder to get used to than the Mazda, even engine braking will stop it shifting unless you blip it at the right moment.

The Lotus 79 is now more interesting, you must lift on the upshift and blip the downshift,  but the cars with syncromesh gearboxes (Solstice, Mustang) seem to require that you use the clutch with heel & toe to be successful.  The G25's pedals are not laid out for that, so I have to use auto-clutch in those cars or I can't even drive them.

this is what I read in release notes:-

Key points:

- If you are struggling to adapt to shifting with no shift aids, don't be afraid to turn on the auto-clutch shift aid and perhaps even the auto-blip shift aid for important sessions where you need reliable shifting. Like any physical activity you may have been doing for a long time it can take a while to unlearn your old muscle memory habits and learn new ones.

Legzy, if you don't want to use the manual clutch there's really not that much difference, certainly not that affect the fun factor.

Seems like a lot of the more 'hardcore' guys who want to do it all manually are finding the new transmission model a lot more realistic and therefore more fun.
