I used to get those darn things. They do hurt like hell. I finally opted for the acid treatment. That stopped it forever.
What's this thread about?

I think an auto would be faster than a 6 speed if the driver had an ingrown toenail. That would make the whole clutch thing difficult.

with a tail wind or head wind?
but seriously, my opinion is most likely the auto w/a high stall TC.
Unless you can just drive the **** out of a manual.

My uncle cut his toe off playing ice hockey. He had to drive an automatic for awhile in '88. But he was faster than ever by doubleclutching that 800R4. I raced him in my new Z06 and won.
