Who cares about the track. For most people 99% of driving is not done at the track. And, the debate about one being marginally faster than the other on a 10 - 13sec. run is besides the point.
Manual stick is "waaaaaayyyyyy" more exciting and technical than tapping a lever on a steering wheel, unless of course you're driving an F1 vehicle, besides that nothing can compare to a stick shift.
And, if someone beats me at the drag strip because he has an automatic who cares, there's always a faster vehicle out there somewhere.
Besides, I prefer road course driving anyway, perhaps that's the reason why I like stick shift.
