'> yea auto-drivers have told me to power brake(dunno if thats the correct term, im talking about when you press the brake & gas at the same time & let go of the brake at about 3K rpms or so). ive never tried that before so i didnt want to try it for the first time at the track. i guess that could help a little. but seriously though, is is THAT big a difference between autos & sticks? i never thought it was that big a difference, considering the fact that most real(professional) drag cars are automatic....then again, they also have 5X more HP that I do. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> well if anyone else has any advice/tips/automatic jokes just let me know.
