a8?

I am more of a drag racer but I am curious about the a8 trans and how it will perform on the road course?

what would have happened if they had tested an a8 ss against the m4? the 0-60 would be better, the 1/4 mile would be better. would the track time suffer?

The dings are that it starts getting hot after a couple of laps and it does better if you leave it to do the shifting. Other than that the A8 is supposed to be excellent on the track.

The new camaro comes standard with all of the coolers. That A8 won't have any problems at all in the Camaro.
