SMDH #drivermod is needed apparently. I mean shit. if your shifts are that inconsistent and slow you need a new hobby.

Don't care. Manual is way more fun. Not racing all day every day.

Auto would win.

You can say "yeah but that was just the driver's fault", but when you race, there will always be a driver in the other car haha
Man I'd love to run you. We may have the same mods except I'm a manual. I beat all the autos here but then again at the most they only have headers. Let me know if you ever go to RPR again. I might head out there tomorrow

With equal horsepower, vehicle weight, gearing, aerodynamics and suspension, a manual is always faster because the drivetrains are more efficient. A lot more horsepower is lost through a slushbox. That being said, anything can happen due to driver skill.

Vader had some ggod points...ive tried with good success. Tap shift in sport into the right gear for the speed your doing...be in the power band..when the hammer drops there is no hesitation....then shift into drive...see ya. I havnt run a manual camaro yet.
