[/b][/quote]I'm confused :scratch:
So the GT Manual ran 0-60 in 5 sec?
GT Auto 0-60 in 5.1 sec?
Also what does ETHM (magazine title??) mean?

The auto was faster than the manual? Must be a crappy driver.

The secret is slipping the clucth you keep the revs high with the throttle and use the clutch to control rear wheel spin. Of course this wears out the clutch faster which is why in a lot of the mag test of hot rodded tuner type comparisons they fry the clutch.
