New C&D, 7AT 370Z wicked fast time

chief_Roka · 09-29-2009, 09:10 PM

This auto, dsg autos, and double clutch autos will pull faster times on a stock car.
This has been the trend over the last few years. Autos have been getting better and better.
1980's- manuals avg being faster by 1.2 seconds.
1990-s- gap began closing in the early 90' that by mid 90's autos were only .05sec slower.
Early 2000's we began seeing autos that would match acceleration times of the manual or be .01 second slower. Porsche, aston martin vehicles and ZF trannies changed the game on autos.
By the middle 2000's you began seeing autos that beat manuals by .02 to .05 seconds.
The manual still is superior in standard mod applications and is the only tranny of choice in drifting sports..
But on stock motors and on ultra advanced racing cars like formula 1. Autos are now superior for track times. Also in formula 1 and several other types of extremely high speed racing sports. Most use automated manuals. Meaning, paddle shift n no clutch.
