We all know that stick cars are direct drive in high gear, giving them better mph on average, but let's not forget that automatics often kill stick cars in 60-foot and to the 330. I've seen plenty automatic small-block Stockers (E/SA-G/SA) out-60-foot the A/S-C/S cars all day long. I'd take a killer 60-foot, which will help e.t. greatly, over big mph, which doesn't hurt, but doesn't really help e.t., any day! We also have plenty of gear selection, but only a small selection that will actually work, much like the low-gear-set or non-low gear for automatics.
