One quick burn out does more damage to your tranny or clutch than a year of using it to slow down.

Been doing it for a long time (45 years) with tranny's even some from the 50's and 60'S with no issues. I'm not basing my advice on some wild theory. Don't scare people from using the tranny for what it was designed.

This Auto stick is an awsome bit of machinery. You won't hurt it doing what I suggested. And, you will do less rapid accelerations and decelerations, something that has been suggested.

Perhaps it is tedious or boring to some but this method of driving gives you more control and less brake wear. As I have said before, my manual trans mission shifts automaticaly unless I think about it.
