On a fast road course with not a lot of slow tight parts and with that motor, not as big a deal as with other motors. Not 100% optimal, but it's not going to blow up and explode with an automatic.
You mentioned "not a lot of slow tight turns" seems like an auto would be OK with that, or is your concern braking?
A little, but also the avoiding the many up and down shifts. It's a bigger deal with something say a 4 cly Neon that would needs to be in the revs.
What is your feelings on this MS68EFI?
I agree completely. So many factors go into this decision. I personally have had no issues with this set-up. We make 600 ft.lbs of torque, so my RPM range is lower and allows for minimal issues between shifts. There will always be a certain amount of driver skill needed to really take a car hard into a corner, manual or auto. I really use my Gear Vendors to my advantage on road course, even under braking. I suggest running your brake bias contols into the cockpit area, it helps on longer runs with a big car.
