Automatic C6-Z06 ?
According to the transmission article in the special edition of Corvette Quarterly, it was stated that the new automatic transmission could handle over 640 pounds of torque. If this is true, then do you think that they will offer both a manual and automatic transmission in the new Z06?

You have to remember that the tranny has to be overbuilt since there's a lot of people that mod their vettes. Then there's always the possibility for future HP gains to the stock C6.
