An AT will always hold the drag record regardless of car. I don't give two ***** about 1/4. I don't buy cars for off the line. I like the twisties. All that being said I'm much more impressed by Phunk's qrt mile times than the time FI put up with an AT. At least Phunk was really doing all the work not just slapping a stick. But I would expect no less from a child of the entitlement generation. Always wanting things done for you

just so they sound cool and keep the MT guys watching their vids. typically that comment is later followed by "wow this AT is really good!"

ever watch a GT-R video and hear a tester complain? nah lol

Dude, i'm just at the back and forth from all the 6MT guys that just can't understand the 7AT is faster and all the 7AT guys who can't understand why somebody wants row gears (me), present company excepted of course.

Since I am now just entering the autox world where rumor has it there is typically only one shift anyway, 1st to 2nd, it really doesn't matter. Now it's all about hp and ft lbs ... oh ... yea ... it's about as well.

I'm just happy to have the Z and be able to have fun with it.

the back and forth makes my work days go faster lol

the 7AT is superior but the diehards will never admit it. that's fine too I mean back your beliefs I get it plus it gives me something to do all day lol

as for autox I've seen some say the 7AT cant beat a 6MT whatever. I guess they forget the 7AT has more aggressive gearing down low where we can shoot out of turns faster, shift faster (fro that 1 shift here and there), as well as always having 2 hands on the wheel for the back to back to back tight turns that come with autox.

I know the MT boys don't like facts but if you think that they can argue those few points I now realize they didn't buy MT's to be more engaged.......its because they're idiots

I don't give a **** about facts and figures. We are talking about smack talk and you are not holding up your side. Should we hand them to you on a golden platter so you don't have to work for it? Isn't that what your generation expects anyway
