If you go to an auto museum or on of those old vintage car rallies have a look inside the cars up to about the late 30's.
There is usually a manual leaver used to advance the timing.
No auto advance BS , it is in the drivers hands.
Real drivers adjusted their own timing , not some gizmo speed sensor auto adjuster.russellkanning Thanks this. -

I will be sure to inform the 25 years plus guys at my company, that they are not real drivers. I am sure I will not be able to post their replies however . Another thing to consider is, the auto shift has made it possible for many to continue driving. Knees and shoulders wear out after years of shifting a stick.
