In the Indian automotive market, the discussion about transmission systems in race cars is quite interesting. While most modern racing vehicles use advanced automatic or semi-automatic transmissions for better performance, there are still some local racing enthusiasts in India who prefer manual transmissions for their traditional feel and control.  
 
Indian automotive manufacturers have been developing various transmission technologies for racing applications. Companies like Tata Motors and Mahindra have been experimenting with both manual and automatic systems in their performance vehicles. The choice between manual and automatic often depends on the specific racing discipline and the driver\“s preference.  
 
Local racing events in India, such as the JK Tyre Racing Championship, feature vehicles with different transmission types. Many amateur racers still prefer manual transmissions due to their lower cost and the skill required to operate them effectively. However, professional racing teams are increasingly adopting automatic and sequential transmissions for their superior performance and faster shift times. |
