need automatic advice Okay i am not used to automatic cars. I have a 4 sp manual camaro and six speed camaro. I usually only race on the street. I was thinking about trading my lt1 on a A4 ls1 car. I am looking at a couple 99's. I was thinking automatics are more consistent. Are automatics any easier to hook up? If I trade again I will not have a whole lot to put into the car, but car craft stated in the sept issue that a converter added a half second or more in the 1/4. That sounds like my first investment. How much did you guys gain with a converter? Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

A4 is better for racing but from what I hear M6 is more fun. I"m not a street racer so I can't answer any of those questions.

Re: need automatic advice off the line racing is much easier with an automatic. A good converter and nittos will make you very quick. An M6 is better if you race from a roll.
Look for an A4 that has 3.23 gears. "GU5" option code or "performance axle" if the seller saved his sticker.
