You would have an ATX... MTX is a stick

ATX = Automatic Transaxle
MTX = Manual Transaxle

Depends on the driver and i believe reaction time unless there is forced induction involved.

of course atx can be faster, especially if mtx driver doesn't know how to shift, but in general, mtx has less drivetrain loss than atx.

Not to mention that it's much easier to control your powerband. Damn these automatic shifts just when it's getting good!
