you rev the car in first to say 3000 with the left foot on the clutch, then you pop the clutch and hurry up and slam on the brake (left foot). its kinda complicated, i could explain it to ya all day, ide have to show ya. most people end up stalling the car (you gotta be quick). once you get the 6spd (if you do decide to) as you get used to the car youll figure out all the tricks and stuff in no time.
yes... but with the absence of a stall converter the tires would just spin... i know cause i have video of my friend doing that exact thing in his 95 z m6

but that would be the ****iest launch in history... you would just burnout and go nowhere...

and have MUCH more potential with stalls and all... you can knock almost a second off the quarter with NO MODS... just a high stall...
and... how fun is it to drive in traffic with one of those puppies?
i think m6 is winning with people be traditional... rather than practical

As far as practical goes. How can you possibly relate practicality to drag racing.

All right, this is how it goes. If you buy an automatic, it's gonna die eventually. Mine died at 70,000 miles, but I had a warr so it only cost me $100 deductable. Make sure you cover your *** and you should have no problem. Now my tranny shifts like a bad ***, so changin the tranny was the best thing I ever did.
Good Luck Bro,
