Manually defeating the master!!!

Today I went to Avi's house to give him the songs of NFS Carbon. After copying the files I wanted to play Need For Speed Underground 2 on his PC so I did some races nd after doing a Magazine cover he told me to Jump to Garage and then save my Career. Then he told me to Quick Race(Why?) and then he started to do a StreetX on Manual Gear(I use Auto) he did a race of 10 laps with no opponents and told me to just watch.

I watched and after he completed the race he went to options chages the transmission to Auto and told me to do the same track with the same preferences. I switched it to Manual, just to see how it feels. And on the second try I was only 0.56 seconds away from the time that he took. I also beat him in one of the laps.

It was the first time I had ever beaten him in racing. It feels great man!! Now I have totally switched to Manual tranmission.
