Since this a "general discussion" question, it will probably be put there soon. With that said, I give you the win hands down. The npi GT's are slow. I think they could barely muster a 15 second time slip. You're AOD is junk, but you should easily win in both categories.

Manual or auto? I think a stock t-5 with a good clutch should be sufficient. But, you can build up you AOD to withstand some power. A shift kit is cheap and provides firm, crisp shifts and allows you to hold any gear at any rpm. A Transmission cooler is a must as well as it will help prolong your transmission's life. it's cheap as well. These two thing's shouldn't be more than $150 if you shop wisely. One note of caution with the AOD. Try not to floor it in OD(4th) even with your minimal mods. It's a very thin band that cannot handle much abuse. Usually that's the first thing to go with the AOD's/AODE.
