That's surprising. I thought my autostick really leapt into trafic if I used 
the lowest gear.  I'd have to shift up right away and I didn't do much high 
speed driving.  Perhaps my memory is colored rosy.

So the fact that acceleration is better in reverse is expected? and the only 
hope is to put in a Manual?  Can I assume correctly that a bigger engine/more 
carburation is more trouble than its worth for these?

Thanks for all the replies.
