If GM can do this for the 1/4 mile Cars they can eliminate the 1LE M6 Issues.

The larger issue is WHY?
Auto V Manual on the drag strip with all things equal we all know who gets the win.

The A10 bogs like crap over half the runs I've made. Then when the stars align it takes off and goes and you see those hero times. I ran 11.1 in the heat at fest last year. Then with the same exact settings and launch I ran 11.7. Every bit of that difference in time was the 60" with no spinning either run. Did this over and over with no consistency due to bog. Might as well just make 60' runs until I feel it take off, otherwise hit the brakes.

I've done at least fifty or more 0-60 timed runs in all different configurations including drag radials. 3.6 one time and the next run a 4.1 with exact settings and traction.

Yes there are more variables with the clutch making it even more difficult but I'm here to say the bog issue is the same, except the auto covers it up better.
