I remember reading in another thread that the clutch limits torque transfer in both directions, is this due to technological limitations or simply a design choice? While shifting to 1st at 200km/h does induce slip in RWD cars it's nowhere near as bad as it is in reality, as someone that grew up with a paddock bomb and had a lot of fun with compression lock-up it's something I would like to see implemented if possible. If your concern is keeping the game accessible to new players that is easily handled with the current "manual transmission automatic clutch" setting as it doesn't allow extreme downshifts without disengaging the clutch.
