depends on are good you are at shifting, if you know what your doing a Manuel is faster
I 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.
