I personally think that that comment is eclipsed by the fact that most dragsters are automatics. In fact, one of the fastest (because I'm not sure if the car still holds the record) drag cars in the world is Titan Motorsports' Toyota Supra and lo and behold it has a TH400 (if I'm not mistaken) automatic transmission right from the guts of a Buick GN.
