I'm not bashing autos...like i said i just like to push myself and my driving ability to the max. The difference is that if i'm not on my game, the auto guy in an equally fast car would take me, so it's all about focus and bringing your A game.

amen to that haha

Here's a good example of some 5 speed bangin....anyone think this is slower than an auto?

its common sense that anyone that knows things about cars knows that if you wanna go real fast its best to go with an auto and all that etc,I know that and wasnt insulting auto's. I'm saying for a street car for a young guy you'd be krazy if you like an auto over manual. The fun level of a manual to an auto is no comparison.

I would love to put my skill against an auto!

Also to note in a track only car, a proshifted or faceplated manual will shift as fast as you can slam the shifter into gear.

We have an N/A stick shift drag car. Went 9.93 @ 135 the other day. Car would be fun with an auto, but its an ANIMAL with the 4 speed!

Yeah it runs good! Heres the best pass, spun out of the hole and slammed the limiter hard in 3rd when the shift light never came on...
