We love our auto and track it on a semi regular basis. There's some speculation that equally prepped auto vs manual on a track, the auto could be quicker due to the efficiency of the gear changes. On some tracks, I'm able to up and downshift quick enough to make the gear changes worthwhile, but the manual guys leave it in third and bog rather than lose time shifting.

We're testing a canned tune for the automagic right now, and will let everyone know when it's ready. So far the power increase is significant in the top third of the rev range, and we're smoothing out the daily drivability.
