FIRST of all, this guy has NO idea what he is talking about. I have a manual so im not partial here. Cant light the tires up in a gt? lol maybe you were pressing the brake instead of the gas? I dunno. Your 93 notch is fast? Yeah? All 192 hp that thing puts down stock? lol. O and gm is kicking our ***? Wheres the trans am? Wheres the camaro? Wheres the gto? seems to me the mustang is STILL on top, considering they no longer make any of those last 3. Buddy, im sorry, but you sir are a moron.

I don't know how you shift a manual any faster than my auto once the tranny has been tuned. Matter of fact I would say there is no way as it shifts fast and hard while the RPM's keep climbing. It is all about the tune and the shift points that are set up in it.

Right after writing a long informative post that was both well thought out,and very detailedI realized it would be wasted on you man...Rather than sling ****, just go and rent one with the auto. Or find a bonestock auto hardtop. Come to adead stop. TCS off. Then mash the loud pedal. Not even a mouse fart, you'll see. Try it and then call me an inept driving, moronic liar...I think you'll be unpleasantly surprised...I never said it wouldn't brakestand. When I powerbraked it and let off, it ripped 'em right through first and into second before realizing it couldn't deal with that muchgear and hooked up quick. That's my true story and I'm sticking to it...And, when my 306 is finished I'll be happy to destroy your stout luxosled anytime. It would be my pleasure...

There's a SS Camaro at my workplace and it has 5.7 V-8 with what 320 horsepower to the wheels.

Pardon me but I love that color it resembles gold and to think they don't even have mineral gray anymore.
Thanks! I love it too.

It's unfortunate for those who want the color as an option for their new stangs...

But fortunate for me, because I'm one of the few lucky ones to have it

NO...no it's not. It's not possible to LAUNCH an auto-trannied car with the same vigor as a manual. It just isn't. Drop the clutch and feather the gas, that's what wins street races, most are won and lost out of the hole. I'm sorry but automatics are for grannies in grocery getters not men in musclecars...
