As soon as I test drove the srt-6, and its auto tranny, I was sold. The tranny shifts faster and higher than a person ever could with a manual. These aren't the old days of auto trannies.

And the electronic shift stick tapping is fun to show people, even if I never use it alone.
Second that, especially at the track. Add spinning and wheel hop for 3 gears equals 14 sec runs with 400 hp.
