So then who wins on a track: the guy that dials in at 14.00 and runs a 13.6 or the guy that dials in at 18.01 and runs an 18.02 ? If this were bracket racing, the 18 second turd. As has been stated, automatics on the track are for consistency. However, I'm sure you can yield a faster track time with computer controlled aggressive shifting, so long as there's a clutch driving the transmission and not a torque converter robbing power away from it.
