    If you can drive... stick, for the rest of the people... auto.

    I like to drive the car, not the other way around

    I can drive a manual, I can't afford to race one, though.

    Yeah, since they discount ATF by the 55 gallon drum and 4l60e's are made from paper mâché' and old Pabst cans you can stay in budget ;)

    Just be glad they don't charge for track clean up supplies :)

    Yeah I'd be in quite the deficit if they charged for track clean up. I don't know about you stick guys, but I like to get every last cents worth of my entry fee, which includes track clean up.

    Yeah, maybe someone who can't drive! Probably the same type of person who can't tighten their suspension bolts too! Lol

    Stick car hands down, street or strip!

    Sticks are for dyno numbers, autos are for track numbers
