if they have the same hp and tq etc, then its probably a drivers race.

weight of the vert negates the tranny advantage. It's pretty much equal.

race from a dig and chances are you will at least have the advantage on launch, which may or may not equate to a win

I think the Auto would win if the Manual guy doesn't know how to shift. Like everyone else said, it's a driver's race.

Pretty even race. More weight and 10 more hp in the vert. Easily can go either way if the drivers get too excited and screw up the driving. Drivers race.
