How much does a 100 ms shift actually help your performance numbers? Its not as if your car is stopped when shifting then instantly accelerates up to a new speed. It allows you to get better acceleration a fraction of a second sooner. That matters a lot in F1 racing but how much does it really help someone who takes their car to a track on the occasional weekend? Compare that to the added cost of these ultra quick shifting transmissions and I don't think they are worth it on cars like the Camaro and Mustang.
