ok whoever started this forum is a complete idiot, i mean come on everyone knows manual will win unless the dumbass cant shift at the right rpm's or even shift for that matter......cuz i know some kids with sweet rides with some decent hp but suck a driving stick becuz, idk they're just retarded, so before u ask this question think to urself who's shifts would be quicker ur's or the computers.....

Re: What would win??

the manual would win by a lot since AT's lose quite a bit more power through the drivetrain than a MT

It really depends on alot of things. If they both had the same rwhp i think the automatic would win. One reason is that i don't think the automatic loses boost pressure when shifting and the manual does. Also, you don't have to worry about driver error. Once you get into the high hp range, the automatic is definitely better. If you look at some of the fastest drag supra's around, they are almost all automatic.

Heads up guys, nothing can shift harder or faster than an automatic transmission. slightly modified with a good strong torque converter and shift kit, no person can push in the clutch shift and dump the clutch as fast as an automatic transmission can, and the faster you shift, the less the RPMS drop/load is decreased, IE the less boost pressure you lose. the trick from there is just the launch.

I hate to burst your bubble guys, but from 60 ft on, the automatic will kill the manual every time.

the auto has the advantage in the drag but around the track it has no chance.
