Somehow the chance to drive an F1 car has passed me by (I shouldn't think I could get in one anyway). But I have had the chance to drive a Bentley Continental Flying Spur, unsupervised by the owner, and 'barge' is not a suitable expression to describe it. 'Fast' would be better, ' kin fast' would be better still. You can boot one of those at speeds at any 7 type car would be struggling to reach, and feel the push as it winds its way up to 'headlines in the national press if you get caught' kinds of speeds.
And they can accelerate too. And they only come in automatic (6 speeds) but you can change manually if you want too.
Just depends what you mean by fast, I suppose.
Anyway, to get back to the original discussion, automatics in a sportscar, even a 7, are OK.
