A:Answer AS logitech said, it’s an option in the game settings, not the controller. Some racing games have three settings for the transmission: automatic, manual, and manual with clutch. Typically, there are rewards for using the more difficult transmission settings, such as faster acceleration, better lap times, or larger number of credits won at end of race. If you enable clutch and fail to use it, and if you have realistic damage turned on, you can strip gears or damage the engine by improper shifting in some games. It depends on how realistic the company made the game.
