YouTube Motortrend: 2016 Chevrolet SS Sedan (The New Benchmark Sport Sedan)

[Mook]

Tho I don't have numbers to back up my car being faster than 11.5.

 

[RICH17]

Not everything is about the 1/4 mile

with you driving your evo.. probably run low 11s.

put an auto in it.. probably run 9s.

just saying

by the way.. i for one approved of your automatic supra

 

[Primalzer]

But yes, having lived with both manual and automatic cars, manual>auto. And that preference has absolutely no objective values to back it up, rather than I feel more engaged in the drive and experience. I have no doubt that autos are now more consistent, faster, and easier than ever, but it still doesn't detract from that fact I'd rather perform my own heel and toe downshifts, use my left leg to depress a clutch, and my right hand to row some sort of H pattern

If I put actual effort into making the car go fast down the 1/4, it would run 9s. Even just fucking around, itll run a into the 10s with practice.

I'm not as shitty w/ that car as I let on.

 

[Mook]

But yes, it would run 11s the first handful of times, no doubt bout dat.

I've got 17s in the garage...tossing some fun tires on that would help......but Ive converted over to cheap mode now. Spent too much already this season

100% agree. I pay more attention driving my Mustang than my Infiniti due to having a manual. There's satisfaction to perfectly executing a heal and toe downshift.

Didn't TCG just get one in the form of the Half Mile?

 

[Mook]

People on here dont like the 1/2 mile for some reason.

I like the half mile, if it had been on a different weekend I would have joined. Was at Road America that weekend.

Every car here is built for the 1/4 duh.

 

[1quick]

I like the half mile but it's almost always on a weekend I work, I prefer the 1/4 mile though

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

says that guy that has never had a car faster than 13.5 in the quarter.

once you have a car faster than 11.50, you will realize Auto>Manual.

sure for bracket racing or for money....then you are back to a boring auto for regular driving. No thanks

 

[Bru]

I want this so hard

 

[IceCreamAssassin]

Would buy
