[QUOTE="Powerstroke Cowboy, post: 983854, member: 610"] What for??? How needs it in this competition?? Most of the events a manual will shine in.. Dyno..... who cares????? Sled pull........ who cares?? I would rather have a manual... better for this then a auto... MPG test...... Who cares??? Manual will out shine a auto if the guy knows what he is doing. Ride and drive... who cares??? tranny sure does not. Eight mile trailer tow...... Not that big of a deal. think sled pulling... I manual can do really good hear if a guy knows how to drive and tow. Trailer obstetrical coarse. makes no difference unless you want to go over ten MPH. both trannys will work good. the auto will have a slight edge. but if the guy knows what he is doing it will not be a problem. 1/4 miles drag. This is autos game. boosted launches are key. BUT with a good DD clutch and some good power he should be fine with the FZF5 if it does not break. Shoot with a slipping SD clutch and well under 550 hp I can do over 100 in a quarter.. now with a DD clutch he could do a boosted third gear launch that makes it so he only hast to shift two times. with 800+ hp and a good third gear launch I would think 110 to 115 should be a piece of cake... if he does that.. he will not finish last that is for sure!! Sorry yall I like me a good shifting ZF5. [/QUOTE]
