hmmm...is that why auto's are slolwer, because of the gear ratio's?
contradict yourself much
stock mustang autos are slower.... read the post before you post this nonsense... everyone knows that for a strictly drag car, and automatic is the best because there are no misshifts...

pretty sure there are auto guys on here that have pulled off 13.9s stock, dont see your reasoning when there are plenty of manual guys that can hardly get into the 14s.

it just all depends on what you make of it, have you installed a stall converter or plan 2?
