We're going in circles now ..Still want to see the evidence that automatic FWD's are more consistent.
I think Ellis misunderstood what I was saying. I was referring to FWD automatic Stockers vs FWD manual Stockers. I mentioned all of the recent year FWD Stocker racers who have been going rounds (and Billy just added credibility to my opinion) , and based on what I've seen, all of them have automatics in them. We've been going more rounds than manual trannied Stockers, because our cars are easier to dial what they'll actually run. I wasn't sure about Ron's car, so I looked up this years Indy and saw that he and Owen's Grand Am were automatics, to go with Bill's, Billy's, mine, Brent's and Stan's cars as well. Who's been running a manual that has been going rounds against the RWD contingent like we have? I can't think of anyone, and I try to follow everyone who campaigns a FWD Stocker as well. The race results show it for all of us.
