First of all welcome to the site, you will find more information than you ever thought possible here....
A Automatic transmission can be faster to 60 and in the 1/4.....bottom line. Doesnt matter who says what or what you have heard.
Let me explain the above statment. A auto CAN be faster than a manual if it is tuned right. This would require the correct stall covertor, matched to the cam profile and HP and TQ curves, plus the weight of the car. A shitft kit can make it shift fast and violently, but will get you better times. It is humanly impossible to shift a manual tranny faster than a auto can.
On the flip side of this in 99.9% of street aplications a experianced driver can turn a better ET with a manual.
Unless you are willing to do your homework on stall converters, shift kits and gearing go with the manual.
With a purpose built racing auto the car becomes very un street friendley.
