I could not tell..i just have a hard time believing a car that weighs almost 4200lbs with 425hp would hang with a GTO that weighs 3700lbs and is rated at 400hp..Lets get this straight a stock auto GTO sucks compared to the m6.

Numbers are little off. Gearing/shifting is the other factor. Its been proven for years. More like 4100lbs so 9.647lbs per hp vs. 9.25 assuming it's 3700lbs, onus on the driver to shift very well. SRT-8s dyno 360rwhp on the low end.

Are you serious with this?
Stock autos run just fine. In fact , alot of them hook up a lot better than the m6.
Not to mention with a tune, they pick up quite a bit. Whenever you decided in your mind that Auto Gto's did not run well, that was the moment you lost credibility.
They run just fine and I've hung with plenty of stock m6's. Not to mention, smoked a few off the line cuz they cant hook. Also a low roll. Drop it into first and that auto moves just like a stick.
DIAF.

If you read any of my post i admitted auto's are better from a dig,but if you think a stock auto will get the hit on a m6 than your crazy..

Depends on the driver. Stock cars I have never lost to a manaul from a roll.

It does depend on the driver..Alot of m6 drivers don't know what gear to start in from a roll..I never start below 3500rpms in any gear.

From my experience, slow shifts are usually the culprit.

I agree with the slow shifts..Another thing that baffles me is people that mishift..From third to fourth all you have to do is palm it into gear.

This is so true, I think people are just afraid to break ****...I say **** it lol

And the only shift I've ever had problems with was 2-3, I always get a little to eager to get off the clutch and back on the power, but I have to say seat time cured that. Now I wish I had a 6speed in my Camaro

Wow. Pretty weak. That it? Surely you have some other bs you have yet to spout yet. Dig the hole a little deeper. I'm sure everyone will believe you eventually.
