You hit the nail on the head.

Adding nothing to this post!

Thanks Snorman for pointing out some hard facts. Looks like your right and the stick can't recover after losing the 60ft in the 1/4 mile.

These threads are enjoyable to read, but quite frankly a bit useless. It all comes down to whether you want to shift or not. It's funny to read the justifications of some in making their choice, by comparing the use of each on the track, streets, on drag strips, in the hands of experts or novices.

Let's face it, whether you opt for an A6 or M7, there will always be someone else who is faster, there will always be a new and improved version just around the corner, and there will always be someone claiming their choice is best.

Absolutely! So why don't we move on and stop beating each other up over a really stupid subject ?
