You do know that it runs on all 8 when you pull a quarter? That system is for traffic jams not general movement.

Actually, its for highway cruising. At low speeds it still uses all 8.

the issue ain't about how much power difference there is between the engines; it's about the transmissions. that 6L80 is a heck of a stock performer... not to say the TR6060 ain't, but i think it'll be more of a drivers' race in the end.
for drags, i think the auto will win out in the camaro, but in road courses, the stick will be the better one

Nothing has been proven in a head to head comparison between the 2 cars that any of us has actually seen. Its been said that the auto will be faster, then that that was a mistake and the manual is actually faster, and back again to auto is faster.
