Turbo6man Lifetime Members 4,084 Member For: 22y 8m 24d Gender: Male Location: South Coast NSW Posted 03/05/05 01:17 AM Share Posted 03/05/05 01:17 AM Pfff….you make it sound like driving a manual is complicated. Here’s a little challenge for a manual boy – try and match the ET down the quarter in a manual that an auto can do with the same rwkw. It’s simple really, I can’t see anyone changing manual gears as fast and efficient as an auto will do it for you; get over it.You can’t beat a manual for handling when going through the twisty bits, but for day to day driving and straight line performance you’d have to have rocks in your head to think that just because you have a gear stick you’re the superior one!Now come and give me a hug.Trent.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Eeeeew, get away from me with that huggy huggy stuff. It's true then, you auto girlies really ARE into that sort of stuff.:laughing:If you want to drive a car, drive a manual ... or you might as well just be a passsenger ....

Flukey Seriously Flukey Member Donating Members 4,354 Member For: 21y 3m 13d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 03/05/05 02:49 AM Share Posted 03/05/05 02:49 AM would a 13.76 make the typhoon australia's quickest production car?No I think the enemy has that title MOTOR got a 4.99 out of a GTO I think with an LS2. Time for the 1/4 was near enough to 13 flat. Ford have got some way to go yet.

Knob JockeysScotty<{POST_SNAPBACK}>That's laughable... purely because the slusher has a lamens manual, which is marketed for when u get that ' performance driving ' feeling.. So u never use the 'manual' in the SSS??
