/scratches head.. you do realize you have less hp and more weight right? Not by much but still.. A good launch from the MT should definitely give anyone in the 7AT a good run.. Unless your speaking about yourself being slower with a manual?

Anyways welcome!

paddle shifters on the Z is faster than a manual Z. I didn't make it up. It's how the Zs were designed. you can do a search there's a lot of discussions about it.

while thats true, its also proven that auto saps power. you can also do a search here. i forget who says it but its either a sponsor or a shop that has done dyno work and proved that auto puts less power down. + auto is like someone else said heavier, so it may shift faster but a good launch would give u a run for ur money.

Maybe stock vs. stock. With that said... I'll take you up on this challenge at the track.

An extra 55 rwhp will etch out quicker paddle shifting every time.
