Auto's are for old guys or dudes that can't comprehend how to shift... A stick is far more fun to drive and takes a driver to actually drive the car instead of just pushing the gas pedal... I guess this makes the difference from real driver... Needless to say.. When there is more chance for driver error then racing becomes more interesting.. At the strip, streets , road course's, w/e the racing.. Sticks are always more fun to watch.

Not quite... Racing is so much more fun when 2 sticks racing than 2 autos... Auto cars seem to always do the same ****... A Manuel has more **** going on.. Face it 2ss... Manuel cars require more skill to operate.. What's more impressive.. Another 8 sec auto car or an 8sec manuel?

I have a stalled auto for a reason: yes it's faster, but also different from the majority of manual equipped modified cars you come across on the street. There is just as much, if not more, skill involved in racing a big stall auto as a stick shift from a dig or low roll. BTW if stick shifts are so friggin cool, why is it that every time I go against a stick shift guy in my power/speed zone they almost always want a ricer roll eh?

edit: Used to be die hard 6 speed guy, you can probably find posts from me about never owning an auto from not too long ago actually, but losing isn't fun, neither is breaking ****. I'll definitely own another 6 speed some day, hopefully in a C6 though. haha
Too each his own, anyone that can't see that part should kindly shut the **** up.

BTW, you can't knock someone that doesn't work on their own car because it just means they are probably busy in other aspects of their life or don't have the tools and skillset to do it themselves. Be proud that you do your own work, but don't look down on others because they don't.
This. Ive built a few cars from rolling chassis into street cars, and done my share of motor, tranny swaps. but having a job now where i work 12 hour days, 6,7 days a week, I have no time, but extra money. why not drop my car off in the morning work, and pick it up done? lol.
