I noticed the left foot moving towards the no-existant clutch as well, further proof 6speeds are so much more fun... That video was awesome, great find!

he once said in the show before (not the same BM issue) that he cannot stand paddle shifters or whatnot....

He also drove the NSX-R in comparison to F430 in that same track right after and he was going all out on that car...

always nice to see Tsuchiya drive the hell out of these kinds of cars.

Are they not manual transmissions that are controlled electronically or something? I know for sure they are based on a manual rather than an automatic.
