There is no doubt that you can outshift some of the older AT's but with how far technology advanced I highly doubt you can outshift porsches new pdk, or mercedes new dsg's. I haven't driven the 7at Z yet but from what I hear it's very fast, no matter how good you are, you can't beat the future

Shift time for the new AT is 500 millieconds. Sure, he won't beat a real Dual Clutch tranny, but he can certainly beat 500 milliseconds. Now the gearing really becomes important as to where you want to be fast.
