I am a little disappointed

[JoshHooten]

Yes I love the new 5.0's I never cared for the 2005-2010 but I love the 5.0s

 

[justinschmidt1]

Autos are gayer than two dudes boning.

...and the 2011+ 5.0s are awesome.

Yea,I prefer being slower, inconsistent, and overall less reliable in higher HP applications, manual ftw!




You sound like the guys trying to defend themselves after getting raped by my auto car with less power.

"yea, he may have won by 27 car lengths, but at least I have a third pedal"

I guess it makes them feel better about themselves *shrug*

I understand your perspective, ive said it before, I wouldnt mind going t56 but I dont see how you can say an auto is gay considering the performance advantages a properly setup auto has over a manual at least in a straight line and even for everyday driveability.

 

[Mrstangerbanger]

All the older Automatic mustangs dont keep there resale value worth shit and no matter what anyone says you will never find anyone that likes a automatic mustang over a stick in less they own one LMAO.. If they own one its the best thing in the world lol .. NO matter what anyone says automatics are gays sorry ( J/K there ok) .. Yea if you build them there faster but if you really think an automatic is funner your crazy .. There is a reason no one wants automatic mustangs .. But yea the new 5.0 automatics are amazing cars but that is the only automatic mustang I would ever own period . Sorry Justin you can say what ever you want but 98% of mustang owners want 5 speeds . There is also a reason why you can get auto mustangs so cheap . But your right If you want the fastest 1/4 mile car then automatics are faster most of the time but not even close to funner . But no matter what your car is sweet and since you already have the auto keep it lol

Also anyone can drive an auto car Justin a 15 kid could drive it just as good .. There is nothing hard about it ..

 

[justinschmidt1]

Yea, too bad 98% of those clown ass manual mustang owners struggle to get into the 13s. Winning

There's a reason why the guys who own autos swear by them, its cause most of the manual fan boys have never had a good auto or a fast car for that matter. The funny thing is when they switch they never go back.

Many people with more.power full cars switch to auto and realize how awesome they can be and never go back.

I respectfully disagree with your view point and would much rather drive around my 600 rwhp built stalled auto car than with a manual.

I.guess you surveyed every potential mustang owner to form that opinion lol

Not sure where you came up with that resale value crap either cause if anything the auto would have a higher book value.

You saying a 15 yeear old.could run.fast in an auto seems like a positive for the auto not a.negative. truly shows how.good a well.built auto is


Anyways, no need to go back and forth. If you like.your manual.good for.you.

Blah blah blah.

None of the fastest cars in the world use a viscous coupling. None. Zero.


Automatics are boring as fuck, and gayer than a bag of dicks. It's not like you spend all your time at the racetrack anyway. Your automatic is about as cool as the one in my girlfriend's Corolla. Automatics are cool lthe same way gutting your car, removing the sound deadener and A/C and power steering are so you can go a tenth faster in the quarter. Do people do it? Yep, all the time. They're retarded.

Gay gay gay gay gay. Like Ricky Martin gay.

My buddy Trent (who found turbomustangs.com) ran 10.25 @ 141 mph in a 5-speed turbostang, whilst not succumbing to the gayness of teh aUtO. No one ever said his car was slow, and nobody ever cared that it wasn't consistent like an automatic. It was a badass streetcar and that's all anyone ever cared about.

Paul.

 

[Knuckles@Empire]

the auto vs. stick argument is GAY GAY GAY like a bag of dicks.

first off ill adress Mr. Stangbanger you make this comment over and over again about how easy it is to drive an auto and how a 15 year old can hop in and duplicate times, whats the fastest car youve ever driven? you think if i put the 15 year old behind the wheel of an 8 sec car there just gonna run 8s? also your statement about how mustang owner or potential owners want to buy stick cars for a reason is somewhat true. But not for the reasons your giving. Stock auto cars until the recent 5.0 cars were always slower than a good driver behind the wheel of a stick car thats the simple truth.

ill add that the talk about an auto outperforming a stick driver when your talking anything in the 2 digit e.t range is stupid. yes it will be more reliable because you cant miss a gear but as long as your half way decent you should get good times out of either in the same setup with the trans style being the difference. Are there cars that go into the 8s with sticks? yep sure are, they are the exception to the rule, and sure that maybe your thing which is great more power to anyone who wants to do that.

what i think is missing out of all the statements for the most part about the subject is it is completely and utterly opinion based PERIOD. Personally anything above 10.00 I prefer a stick car I owned and evo that ran mid 11s on a stock 5 speed and a high 10 mustang with a tremec i enjoyed them inmmensly on the street, for my drag car whose goal is to go 7.99 I have a power glide which i get to shift from 1st to 2nd. Im sure I could have procurred a tranny that could handle my power and done it with a stick but when traveling 160+ shifting gears isnt what i want to be doing. Again this is my OPINION.

See im unsure what this whole statement is about Paul your someone I usually value your opinion on stuff your usually very informed on what you say im not sure if handz hacked your account and is writing for you with all this talk about dicks and gays lol. What i dont get is why you have to bash people who want to lose weight by any means necesary. Personally i would never bash you for what your doing to your notch and adding all kinds of weight so that your confy in my opinion thats not something I would do, but you like it so thats great for you.

While im not trying to be a douche here or be anyways parents and tell anyone what to do id say lets try and keep stuff educational instead of bashing each others opinions which we are all entitled too. If we all thought the same I gaurantee you the car scene would be boring as fuck.

P.S sorry i misspelled so many words its a bit late when im writing this.

 

[ttocs]

some people are either lazy or lack the skill to drive a manual well enough. They get an automatic...

You must be gay as a bag of dicks and have zero driver skills bro.

Paul has become more and more of a douchebag with his extremely opiniated bag of digs in his mouth views. If you havent noticed its his way or its the wrong way so you learn to ignore his irrelevant, retarded comments.

O sweet, another manual fanboy.

yea, im sure all those guys other there running 6s,7s,8 second 1/4 mile passed are lazy fucks that lack the skill to drive a manual.

There a re many benefits to the auto. My car came from ford with an auto and at the time was my DD which got driven about 70-100 miles a day in a lot of shitty ass traffic, thus my decision to stay auto.

A mildy built 4r70w has no problem handling 600-700 hp and with a boosted car, they just work and work well with boosted cars...my 1/4 mile times tell it all, go see how many manual 4.6 2v mustangs you can find running low 11s anywhere near my hp range

Whats your car ever been in the 1/4 scott?

seems like the 13 second guys with manuals want to say how gay autos are

 

[justinschmidt1]

Its funny how most around here are slow as fuck and want to hate on autos but head over to a forum where people can actually break through the 13s and everyone respects the auto.

Different strokes for different folks but if a transmission can knock a full second + off my 1/4 mile times than I dont see how it can be considered "gay". Lots of well driven cobras go from t56 to 4r70w and typically drop a full second.

Obviously if you dont care about going fast than this doesnt concern you.

When did everyone become so opiniated around here?

If you dont like autos so be it, who the fuck cares? Ill still blow your doors off in my gay ass grocery getter.

I was working a clutch when I was 12. whoopty dooooooo, I must be such an awesome driver!

Sorry but if you think having a clutch makes you a better driver or more of a man, your just an insecure douche.

 

[Paul]

I'm stirring the pot because your fanboy-ism is off the deep end. There is no way an auto is going to "knock a full second" off your times. Nobody cares about your auto, and most Mustang people don't want autos. If you can drive that stick, you'll be able to match your times.

Period.

Paul.

 

[Tommy92]

If an auto dropped a full second off one's 1/4 mile time then they can't shift for shit lmao

 

[forcefedhatch]

It's dropped a second and a half off of mine,but I also added 200 hp in the process..

What i dont get is why you have to bash people who want to lose weight by any means necesary.

You are building a car primarily for the track, with the intention of running single digits. Removing weight there makes sense. However, most people who do it aren't anywhere near single digits and do mostly boulevard cruising in their sweet 13 second tin can.

You guys are morons.

I guess if you are one of the best drivers on the earth you could flat shift and match auto times....

99.9% of people can get nowhere near the limits of a manual car and most higher HP boosted cars gain a lot of time switching to an auto.

Your average 500 hp 03/04 cobra typically can knock a full second off their ET when swapping from a t56 to a properly built 4r70w with a decent converter.

This isnt biased bullshit, its just how it is. Do the research.

My fanboyism doesnt even exist anywhere but your twisted mind. I am just speaking the truth. If I could snap my fingers and have a t56 in my car, I would just because its not my DD anymore and its not a drag car.

No matter how much I love a good 6 speed, im not going to sit here and talk out my ass like autos arent superior for drag racing cause thats just not the case

 

[Musturd]

Holy. High speed autos are still a handful. Like others said some people can shift and some can't , some break Trannys all the time some don't

 

[Musturd]

Knuckles FTW

 

[justinschmidt1]

This thread sucks, when did it become a manual vs auto debate.

Argue all you want but take the exact same 500 hp car with a 4r70w and a decent converter and that car will run faster than 99.99% of people will run in the same exact car with a 6 speed.

Simple as that.

 

[Paul]

None of the fastest cars on earth use a viscous coupling. None. Zero. No matter what '03 Cobra with an Eaton only and NO nitrous while travelling East toward Mecca into the morning sun on a Tuesday tells you, that will still be true.

Sorry man.



If going fast in a straight line line somewhere between 9 and 11 seconds at a time was the only the measure of cool, fun, or fast, then your argument might have some merit. Unfortunately, it's not.

 

[justinschmidt1]

Holy. High speed autos are still a handful. Like others said some people can shift and some can't , some break Trannys all the time some don't

Na man, anyone can hop in an 8 second car and run 8s

All you do is push the pedal.

Cool story bro, thats great and all but also has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

I dont care if the fastest cars on earth dont use autos...they also have transmissions that no normal car would ever run so it has no relevance to this discussion.

In the world of 400-800 hp cars, a properly built auto will out perform 99% of drivers in your average 5 or 6 speed car.

The fastest cars on earth dont even run on fucking gasoline, get .05 mpg, get so hot they melt the ends of spark plugs after 1/8th mile, yea man, real comparable to our everyday street cars.
