60 mph stopping distance of 105 feet is a very strong number.

In most of the testing the Auto is faster from 0-60mph (due to an easier launch), but at higher speeds the extra HP of the manual LS3 takes over. The manual is proving to be a little faster in the 1/4 mile.

So the automatic may prove to be the stop light to stop light street champ. But at the drag strip (full 1/4 mile) the manual has the advantage (stock vs stock).
