He first said that the L99 with LC achieved a 4.6, he then said the LS3 got 4.9 but he was shocked, he said that he had gotten better, and he really doubts the 4.9, he claimed that he thinks that was achieved without LC. He knew everything, he knew that the v6 gets better the 6.1, he boldy told the crowd that you would get mid to high 5 seconds. He explained that he doesnt know exactly why it was released as 6.1, but he explained how it was better and that was a good story! SO anyways him telling me that the LS3 was far better then 4.9 with his background was good enough confirmation. With a good driver, the LS3 should be right with the auto, maybe a bit better, maybe a bit worse, youll just have to see for yourself

one thing i will say... the auto does not have launch control. that's only a feature with the manual.
