Now the story changes to a " tuned computer " and for what it's worth, Never say Never because chances are you will eat those words ...

A stock computer will shift better than 80% of these people here. A dyno tuned computer will shift better than anyone. That was the point I was trying to make. TUNED > all.

There are good and bad about both. I love to drive manuals on the road ,but I always preferred automatics when it came time to drag race.

Gr. lol

Try driving the L99 in some twisties, corners, and/or road track with the TAPshift (TUNED) and it truly is amazing. Don't give me the "when you turn you don't know which side to click" excuse. It's simple, when you turn everything is opposite. lol

Now, you shouldn't be making any comments on a transmission without ever driving it.

Let's all take a breather and sit down. This is like a CIVIL WAR here so stop. We're supposed to be helping each other make our cars faster to beat those pesky Mustangs.

Thread closed.

Wow! You guys are getting real testy about this. Buy what you like, whatever the reason. This "debate" can go on forever...and in the end, it only matters on your preference.

So, ZR1 would be great, but...6 $$$$$$
'11 Z06 Carbon and the associated Z07 and CFZ packages. IOM Yummy! Auto or manual...I'll take either!

See, that was just a stupid comment. Calm down.

It's preference. But, performance oriented people should lean on a tuned auto (6-speed auto nonetheless) with a manual mode. Even better would be a dual clutch tranny.

You cannot be serious when you say only dumb people get stick.

Dude, you are just too much. All this and you advertise a pretty much stock car running 13s.

You might want to quiet down a bit until you build it up and make it quick. Even then, it is clearly up to choice and preference.

You slowly lost any credibility through the entire thread and then topped it off with a "my dad says".

My momma say that happiness comes down from magic rays of sunshine when you are feeling blue.

Cheers Mr. Sanders.
