One clutch is trying to do the work of two.

No matter how brilliant the software and engineering, it will NEVER be as smooth, predictable and responsive as a two-clutch assembly.

Honda clearly paid a great deal of money to the Japanese company who designed it. (Can't remember their name. Sorry). Yet they must have realised that it would always be inferior to any two-clutch box.

So why did they continue with it? Was it arrogance?

It can't possibly have been ignorance.

I wonder if they're regretting it now.

And what are the chances that, come 2009/10, it'll be gone?
