When having ONLY two clutches just doesn't cut it anymore,......IMBoring25 wrote: This is the same challenge the dual-clutch transmission designers face because you lose the advantages of the dual clutch if the transmission doesn't have the correct gear pre-selected. They build in throttle position, rate of acceleration, and even whether you're braking to decide if you're likely to upshift or downshift next. It's even trickier for you since you can block-shift, which a dual-clutch can't.
Honda gearing up for 11-speed triple-clutch transmission?
