Attitude? Exaple please? The timeslips with redlight rt's I seen. I was joking that they were fake. They maybe gfake but look real and dont cre either way. Its hillarius he wasted his time getting them. And honestly dont care if he is the cooles guy or racer in the world. Incorrect about what? I have yet to hear anyone try and defend the "track" the only place that matters http://www.dragtimes.com 96 silver is the only one who goes from talking cars to crack and other meanless stuff. Your coments have had atleast logic and though behind them. For that I give you credit.

This depends on what year car, and what make of car you are talking about. The 94-04 mustangs with the old four speed auto are slower than the 5 speed. Motor Trend says the the new 5 speed automatic should be a couple of tenths quicker (under 5 seconds for the GT) to 60 mph. The fastest tranny right now being made is the 6 speed DSG AUTO in the V-6 Audi TT (which i have ridden in and shifts alot faster than a manual tranny). The new technology coming out is making the transmisions faster than that of the old automatics. However if you have 2 2005 Ford Mustang GTs one with an auto and one with a 5 speed the auto will win. If you have an earlier version (94-04) the 5 speed will take the auto.

Dang someone can't take a joke, send a link to the lighting changes. Trying to located it and cannot. Not sure if you relize this or not but you keep repeating yourself and don't sound very bright doing so. Once again Ill ask....Wrong about what? no one has a answer for me. The I have never used this "new tree" I sent you multiple links. Like I said earlier it may be something I have not heard of. instaed of lashing out pay attention so you sound atleast half ways credible.

if you had done more research before opeing your hole you would have found that all NHRA tracks have been running a 0.000 tree since 03. Non NHRA tracks "might" still be using the .500 tree. The fact that you don't know this means that you have either never been to the track or live in the middle of no where. I just find it so been owned. you are wrong about the tree, you are wrong about the debate. Will you ever conceed these points? no. Why? because your not man enough to admit when your wrong.
Now have a very nice day 
amusing that you continue to not only defend yourself here but troll in other sections of this forum to poke fun at me. It's one thing to not know the answer. it's another thing to ask a question that you have already desided the answer to and fight everyone tooth and nail when they disagree with you. Then you try to attack the person making the statements in hopes that you can distract the fact that your wrong. It really is amusing. you have

My tourqe converter is built for applications up to 800 crank hp. My shift points and firmness were set when I tuned on the dyno.
Yea I probably loose 5 or 6% power vs a stick, but when I run, Its pedal to the floor and hold it, except for slight letup on the shifts (I can fishtail 2nd and 3rd on radials).
An important thing not yet mentioned it the effect of shifting with a Blower. I keep full boost all the way through the run, while a stick has to get off the boost to shift.
I bought an auto 'cause I'm lazy, and its my daily driver. Next race-only car will be a stick.

that was also a joke, relax. its just forum slang.
anyway, thanks for recognizing the thought i put in to my posts- like i said, nothing personal intended.
the reason i didnt think you were joking about the slips is becasue i figrued you werent in the mood to joke around..
anyway,
no worries,
