Probably 11's. That 60' is killing him. A high stall will knock plenty over a second off of his 60', probably a second and a half.....Not to mention the later gears..... [img]graemlins/banana.gif[/img]

You don't need an auto to turn good times in a turbo car. I'd rather wrap my car around a pole than put an auto in it.


Linxs.. when you're ready, get yourself a stutterbox and some good tires. Your 60' times will come down as you get more used to the car and you get it a bit more prepped for the track. This was your first time out.. people telling you to get an auto are VERY premature.

The point at which an auto tranny becomes an absolute necessity to maintain ETs, is, i'm sorry to say, not the 12 second mark.

there yah go.. </font>[/QUOTE]:rolleyes:

no reason to call me retard.......

it just my experacne that poeple that drive M car have a better idea of whats going on around them on the road they are more alert, i also think most have better reachtion times, do to have to push 2 peddles down.....

I siad IMHO not It's written en fu(king stone... jeez. i don't mean because one person drive a M5 is automatically a better driver :rolleyes:

I think in my own god danm fu(king opinon that on avg. manny drivers are "more safe" to be around

I also think i might start moding like the mods everyone hated when there post just dissapear if PERSONAL bashing don't stop, there is no reason to call me a retard for haveing my own thought about something or anyother memeber for that matter

especily since i wasn't even being real, jsut ****ing around and some poeple just take every chance they get to someone a name....

If i did something to ANY of that offend you why don't you just make a post about it and tell the hole world so everyone knows, then if you don't shut up your just tlking to your self, i only wanted to mod cause i thought i could help out the board, but for some reason a few members, the vary day i got this place on the board just came out how dumb i was. and had never said anything to me before. i always admit when i don't know somthing and i try to point poeple to the poeple that know more on the subject......i don't think i have ever gave out any wrong info to anyone.

viper04af is correct. Statistically manual drivers are involved in fewer accidents. This is generally attributed to the fact that they have to concentrate more on driving the car and therefore they have higher situational awareness.
