i don't think any of those are manual stef, i thought the quickest was a low 11?
they all struggle to get CVs to hold together.

Probably right Steady ED, they'd all be BTR 4 speeds (with the exception of the single BF listed).

Easy to build strong, can add a big stall converter (so build boost on the line, can't really do that with the ZF6 yet*), and no missed shifts.

Manuals are NOT the best choice for drag racing. Check the higher classes, few run manuals (and the classes that do mandate them, use fancy air sequential or star shifters).


* there's work on that in progress. Kewish Automotive (among others) are building strong ZF's, and I think there's someone experimenting with a high stall converter in a BF F6.

theres 3 BFs in there, i know for a fact two of those are ZFs.

top 5 is all C4 im fairly sure, apart from 1 one of the gtech cars which has a powerglide.
cant remember which one it is though

3 it is. Shouldn't browse FM at work

there is nothing wrong with that

Just need to dedicate attention properly.

thats interesting to read.
I think id be happy with a 12sec quarter but id rather drive a slower quarter mile car then have an auto there just not enjoyable to drive at all.

I'm with you on that i just can't seem to grasp that auto feel, mind you i,ve never owned an auto cat before but my girl has a BF XR6 with a zf 6 speed in it.

Go the manuals
