Unless you want to drift or something and actually want all the control a manual transmission provides AT will actually be faster around the track.

Stock v Stock, sub-par driver, the Auto is .1 seconds faster on the strip, so change the driver, change the result.

It's not the power that kills the AT, its the Torque. Supposedly the 7AT can safely handle up to 400ft-lbs. After that its

area.
