Its really based on the Driver's Preference!!!
why sure, most street race cars today are automatics as no one can shift a manual tranny as fast as an automatic.
Yes, it can, depending on who is driving both of them. If the person driving the stick is experienced with shifting and knows how to quickly change gears, he can do it faster than a manual can, usually. There are also other racing factors that can affect the outcome, but speaking purely about the tranmission it's only a question of how good the driver is with a manual.
No, they do not. Manual transmissions are used in Nascar race cars.
No, automatic transmissions may shift faster than a manual transmission because it takes a lot of skill to race and change gears using a manual with a clutch, however, the manual transmission allows you to decide exactly when to shift for more speed at the times you need it and for better engine performance when done by a skilled, practiced, professional racer.
The 454 it would have better acceleration
They use the truck haulers to transport everything race to race.
Yes. The truck raced past. I like to race.
The Great Food Truck Race - 2010 Midnight Truck to Georgia 2-6 was released on: USA: 18 September 2011
depends on are good you are at shifting, if you know what your doing a Manuel is fasterI disagree:A properly tuned automatic will always be faster than the manual gear box over the 1/4 mile drag race. The basic numbers come down to an automatic will never stop applying power to the wheels while a manual will for a split second.The problem comes in when we get to truly fast cars (8 seconds and faster) there are no automatics that can take this abuse and the manual box becomes the only choice.
The 2009 Hess Truck is not actually a truck. It is a Race Car with another smaller Racer inside.
Kyle Busch's most recent Truck Series race was on August 21, 2013. He currently runs a limited schedule.
Race car for sure, there are more possibilities!
