Exactly they are trying to get as close to a manual as possible

By set up I mean autos generally launch better because its easier to launch an auto. But there are the 6 spd that can launch and the drivers that can tag gears well enough can get them into single digits no problem and still have more fun on the street and get better gas mileage and it will be more impressive.

no, only the launch would mean better et's. Like I said, given an equal 60' and a decent driver a manual tranny is faster given the same mods.

When are we gonna run Ivan? Let's see how my "true" street car does against your "street car"

I didnt think so, i just want to run you anyway

Everyone knows that for an all out drag car you use an auto and get the best et's. All i'm saying is that 4l60e's suck ***** to drive, I hate them, and an M6 car is marginally faster when under 700rwhp and given the same launch with a decent driver.
