Nice run.. very fast. I highly doubt it was a manual tranny though, probably a built auto with a slap stick shifter.

check the spectators that are standing at the right (in the 1st vid). Especially the guy in the hoodie. He is moving really fast.

But if you do look close he is just waving the lights down the tree.

That's no automatic. More than likely pro shifted, which is great for drag racing, but not ideal for the street. With a tranny being pro shifted, you can't downshift unless you double clutch it and get the tranny rotating at a certain rpm for each gear.

If its a manual, its using a plantary gear box in which you only have to pull a lever straight back for each gear. No normal 5-speed pattern. Thats way to quick for any type of normal manual.

Doug the v6 member is just a member rank.. it changes with more post.
You guys don't shift that fast??? Sounded like normal "real-deal" powershifting in a built car... i have to agree, sounds like a pro-shift tranny, probably a liberty 5-spd.
