Glad you asked. Owned an auto, drove it on track, 1/4 mile, etc. Friend with manual same deal. Even with the trunk interior stripped from the auto FR-S it cant pull below a 16. Quickest run was a 16.3 with everything stripped. My friends manual WITH a HUGE sub box in the car not stripped managed a 15.3.

MotoP ran his car on the same track as a manual and was a full second behind.

Auto is slowwwwwwww. From a dead stop and around the corners. Manual just picks up speed faster.
