  • i think it all whinds down to personal preference its 2011 going on 12 and i think in this day in age the lines of which are better are heavily blurred for my manual users just face it..manuals are no longer superior cause the computer chips acts faster than a human and for my auto users just face it that manuals are more fun... case and point...

  • For drag purposes it might as well be FWD or RWD if its auto =/

  • thing is that auto's are smoother and faster shifting (depending on the car) and well im sorry but manuals are just so fun. every gearbox has a purpose. manuals save gas and are fun for the track, normal autos are great town cruisers, and sport autos change gears faster than a human ever can ever shift.

  • @2002j30a1 wait so tell me..should i get a auto crx or stick since i wana race in road race?? I got the corners but will auto be able to hold position on straights?

  • @PapuhLeanDocka with a Honda CRX? 5 Speed manual is the only way to go with what you want lol.

  • @PapuhLeanDocka lame... learn to do stick...

  • my cock is smoother than a standard transmission.

  • The 08 got to the end first but it was a bracket race so it lost .But i hit the brakes at the end so i wouldnt brake out .But it wasnt enough.

  • um i dont know where yall have been drag racing but drag cars are manuals and dont say anything about top fuel because they only have 2 gears which are forward and reverse

  • @rammstein1258 - we've been on earth. the question is, where the fuk have you been. alot of drag cras run transbrakes dude. wake up

  • drag racing with a turbo auto is better.

    you can build boost and launch easier.

  • A stick with a proper clutch is always better. ALWAYS, don't even try to argue this because if you do that just means you don't know how to drive a stick.

  • shows how much you know about automatics. most race drag cars are auto because of how quick it can shift over a manual trans.

  • HA I laugh at you.

  • your right manual is better as you can shift quicker and get a smoother shift, autos are jerky and horrible things, as it shows in this video there slower aswell as the o6 wrx is quicker than the 08 wrx

  • your stupid. the 06' blue car had a bad launch..... and stick and auto arent a big difference. alot of people can make autos faster than stick if they dial in shift times properly.

  • im stupid, did you not read what u typed first???

  • Define bad launch with an automatic? Did he not hit the gas?

  • oh on this race, the blue auto car had a better time so it won!!!!! just to point that out, i didnt even notice that!!!!

  • if you compare times it won, but if you raced someone and they slept at the tree for a full second and then had a better time would you give them the credit of a win?

  • hey thats a tough question...i guess it depends if its on a dragstrip or on a city red light

  • Lmao thats odd, it really looked like the manual won

  • @sniperlif3 i know. he must have punched it first or something. oh well

  • I must agree that BUILT auto trannys are better, but stock auto to stock manual, most of the times the manual will take it with some exceptions. The m3 SMG believe it or not is faster than the manuals!!! few other cars auto is also faster somehow!!!

  • yeah like drag cars are alot quicker but most autos are slower than manuals, also depends on the driver aswell

  • dtrash just agreed with me.... do you want to delete your comment now? since you were wrong again....

  • and, so you too think you know everything about cars do you lmao ok good luck with that, you clearly have no concept of how cars work. with an auto you can make much quicker and smoother changes, autos are only good if you have a massive amount of acceleration as you wudnt be able to change fast enough !

  • thats y drag cars are mostly auto cuz they can shift quicker!!! u guys are arguing over nothin! In circuit manuals are much better, but some auto cars are developing Duble Cluch automatics which shift faster than the human driver without any loss when downshifting and it curves, but those are still expensive. Hell I drive an tip-tronic auto, but while it is not as fun as a manual it still does half the job!!! So Drag Racing=Automatic. Circuit=manual. Around City=Manual or auto(WHO CARES)

  • The new automatic shifting race cars are quicker. The Porsche 911 Turbo with the paddle shifting double clutches are 0-60 in 3.3 seconds versus that of 3.8 seconds with the six speed manuals. You will find similar numbers with the Ferraris.That is with the professionals driving them, of course.

    I think manuals are much more pleasurable to drive and I don't ever want to be without one, but the newly engineered autos are able to shift at greater speed and precision than a human can.

  • i totally agree with u that modern day autos are quicker at shiftin but there not all smooth as a manual! i jsut cudnt live without a manual !

  • @goldsgym1244 You don't choose a manual to shift quicker than an auto, you to it so you can choose your RPMs for the gears. If you use a manual right it is faster than auto in most new cars. Some of them, auto is just faster, say in your high end mercedes with 7 and 8 gears, etc.

  • @WGPmetallica What about BMW DSG transmission and VW's? Those would beat any auto

  • @goldsgym1244 until you drive a DSG transmission.

  • @textcrwds na manual all the way for me im afraid :D

  • @goldsgym1244 Your right, they are waaaay smoother than manuals. lmao

  • @sa8901 can u not read, i said there not. retard

  • @goldsgym1244 Your an idiot, you know that right? You clearly said that the autos aren't as smooth as a manual you assss and I was objecting and telling you that they are in fact smoother just in smartalec way.

  • @sa8901 look what you just wrote! your the fucking idiot. autos are only smoother if you can drive a manual and if your a yank then ill let you off as most of you cant!yh they maybe smoother in cruizers etc but in performanc cars they are shit!

  • SMGs are not automatics. They use a hydro-clutch. I define an automatic as a transmission with a torque converter. SMG trannys do not have a torque converter.

  • DO you push in a clutch on a SMG M3? HEll migh as well be auto, but i get what u are saying. Im not sure what the mini cooper uses, but their autos are faster than the manuals!!!! oh well it dosent really matter, its all about what u preffer.

  • @sataraid you define? lol, sorry bro, but i'll go with what the pros put out as a definition and you= fail/

  • @themisiek2 i know your comment is a year old but i sill wanted to tel lyou that youre a total dumbass. a stick with a proper clutch is still at the mercy of the driver. a properly built auto would rape your stupid ass all day long.

  • @highway955 a properly built auto is going to cost you a good bit more than a properly built manual

  • the left one was clearly an auto and out the hole did terrible. then it ran the 5 speed down and had a better time. rewind and watch it again.....

  • I wasnt aware they made an auto WRX :S

  • ....what are you smoking?

    the WRX only comes in a 5-speed.

    no automatic available.

  • WRX comes in Automatic also (It's optional)

    MY2008 is the last you'll see the Automatic WRX, MY2009 there is no more Automatic for it, you'll have to opt for the Impreza GT.

  • wait I have been driving an auto trans this whole time and I didn't even know it. psych! hahahahahahahahaha

  • no....it comes wit 4speed auto and 5 speed stick.

  • I think the car you're referring to is called a "Dodge Challenger" :)

    Was pretty sad when they said it only came that way.

    Dunno why you'd think the wrx only came with an auto.

  • the guy couldn't drive a manual of course hes gonna lose both real slow wow i remember those days heh

  • you ever see how fast your wrx was when it was stock? i'd guess about 14.2-14.4?

  • Well, if they were both the same car with the same specs, I'm sure that the manual transmission would have won.

    But when as obviously seen, extra mods and more HP makes tranny differences useless.

  • depends on the skills of the driver. Considering how auto transmission have much more consistency then a low-average person driving a standard.

  • nathanial, what the hell are you talking about when you said "i dont get why people are so proud and modify a 4 door car". Here are few nice 4 door cars, STI,Evo, m5 etc... Just cus a car doesnt have 2 doors, and its not blue, red or yellow color, doesnt mean that its a slow and un-tunable car.

  • you forgot black =-)

  • My best time is 13.9 in a 1/4 mile And that's from a dead stop. Not power launching. But When I power launch it doe's 13.4

  • bet my 96 wrx auto wud leave both cars for dust ..that jus seemd so slow do ppl not no how to get the best possible set off in auto..

  • Your probably still dreaming of owning your first car. Good luck with that.

  • Best mod for fat cunts. Loose some weight and watch your car fly! Includes myself... my car has to lug 83kg worth of fat ass.

  • I just installed cobb downpipe Borla catback and a stage 2 tune it wont be that close anymore.....

  • Who buys an automatic wrx? pfffft.

  • "who buys a wrx?? pffffft"

    it's cheap speed, for kids who can put a cheap BOV and slap on that TIGHT exhaust yyyooo, that's who buys them. people who don't want to put real money into making a fast car.

  • ha i was just kidding but damn.. you really went off!

  • ppl like me who dont have use ov a clutch leg....duno y they were goin so slow in dat race mine kills any thing round here and thats a 96 wrx ..gose like shit off a shovel

  • everyone says the samething.

  • that 08 looks like a hyundai

  • Congrats on the win ! Thats me in the 08 With cobb stage 1 no other mods . I just installed cobb downpipe what an improvement hoping to get into the 13s .

  • automatic wrx, sigh..what a waste of a wrx.

  • Turbo back exhaust and k&n air K&N Filters. And Remove the spare tire off and the jack. And then buy a 11.5lb Braille Lightweight Battery.

  • @ImportRace a lightweight battery? the the most pointless mod... if your car is actually affected by a minimal difference in battery weight, i dont think you should be bothering racing with it.....

  • Thas nice dude

    What mods do u have in ur car?

    i have a 07 wrx limited auto and could use some advice

  • next brake boost you would of launched the shit out of it. if you were able to keep up with him just by flooring it i could imagine what a launch would do.

  • Very nice I wish my 04 can do that. but I'm getting a 98 coupe 2.5 RS or a P1 if lucky a 22B LOL  Summer of next year as soon as my Scoby is payed off.
