Racer did. Interesting, car was faster with Automatic.

Seems like this is getting pretty long. Shouldn't the posts about this car be in a thread of its own instead of added to the original thread? Maybe Steve or someone could separate this from the original thread and make a new one just for this car.

I think if Steve agreed, it would be possible to copy the thread and then delete the earlier comments and edit the title. Steve if you want to do that and want some help let me know.
