groper Member 611 Member For: 17y 2m 22d Posted 01/05/08 11:14 PM Share Posted 01/05/08 11:14 PM yeah that's what I noticed too... the auto graphs are in line but the manual ones are way outa whack. I guess the auto takes the driver out of the equation...but as the auto graphs are in line, that means that most people are getting the power they think they have. The conditions of the day they ran, summer or winter, and the tyres they ran probably account for most of the variance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can really respect the guys with high powered cars who are trying to put it to the ground and get a god ET although the MPH numbers I would have thought should have been consistent across all transmissions compared the the power levels.
