I’m new to the late s197 and S550 world and need some experienced input. I don’t know weather to get an auto or manual. I plan on doing just drag racing, and not making it into a track attack car. I also don’t plan on it being stock. So keep in mind that the auto trans is going to have a tune. If anyone can help me out on which one the think is faster, better for everyday driving, and just more solid, that would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.

I think so. I drive a manual right now and I’m kinda tired of it.

When I finally drove an MT82 car and a 2013+ 6R80 car back-to-back, it was eye-opening. The MT82 just kinda... sucks.
