I would re read and try and comprehend what he is saying, not once does he say the auto is as fast or faster than the manual, he actually alludes to the manual being faster, due to gear ratios. The point that he is trying to make though is that the most important factor on a track is not the transmission, but the skill of the driver. Get some Joe-schmo in a MT vs an experienced track driver in an AT and 10 out of 10 times the better, experienced driver will win.
While the MT is a little "faster" than the auto, the difference is made negligible by the experience of the driver.
