I find manual more fun and engaging but if drag racing is your main thing, it is a lot easier to get lower 60ft's and ET's with auto.
The difference in gearing plays a significant role as it relates to the ZL1. More gears that are tightly spaced together and faster shifts keeping you in boost. Notice the boost gauge on the A10 vs. the M6.



ZL1 A10 pull


ZL1 M6 pull
