Time For A Transmission Rule Change?

[6130]

An existing transmission rule that appears to not be being enforced, is the rule stating that you have to use the clutch to change gears, and specifically banning clutchless gearboxes. I'm not gonna point fingers, but I'm seeing a lot of in-car videos of stockers clearly showing gearchanges made without touching the clutch.

I have a 2004 Dodge 2500 diesel and an 83 Mustang GT with a T-5 that I can shift without the clutch, neither at WOT, but I'm pretty sure just about any aftermarket stick shift can be shifted w/o clutch.

The rule defines how the transmission is to be used, regardless of what it is capable of.
