This is from my husband (age 41) and my brother (age 37), who are major car guys and drag race. Admittedly, a manual probably will hurt my times at the track since I am not an experienced racer, but that's not why I wanted it. Although the husband and bro' do both prefer limited-slip diff.

They are correct..... Can't out shift an auto trans, don't care how fast someone thinks they are....
