ya im going to go with something like a 28" tire, and i dont want the c4 because it only has 3 gears and the car needs to drive on the highway to get to the track. and dont they have a T56 where the 6th gear is lower then the 5th gear of a t5

If its a track only car where you plan on racing alot like a couple of times a month and such then auto because of consisity. Stick would be best for street and just driving around.

I voted for T56. Ive considered eventually putting one inmy car.
Sure an auto is more consistent but a stick is alot more fun to drive.

My thoughts exactly. Emphasis on the "more fun to drive" part (auto = no fun , IMO)
