Manual or automatic?

I've been trying to decide which one is better. I've talked to a lot of people and got opinions facts etc. I decided automatics are better. I looked online at quarter mile times from a corvette zo6, one manual, one automatic. The manual one a few times sure and their quarter mile was very inconsistent. The automatic won the majority of the ten runs and had near exact same quarter mile time all the time. What do you guys think is the auto better or a manual?

Re: Manual or automatic?

if you are drag racing, a auto is the way to go, if you want to have fun driving the car on the street a stick is the way to go. If you commute a distance and drive the car in traffic everyday, i would go with an auto as well.
