looked like the Supra was having a little trouble shifting, he was gaining in mid gears but he lost it at the beginning everytime and also when he shifted....

SMX is on a distinguished road
Lots of Cobras around here run in the low to mid 12s with a few mods. I've seen a couple of Supras run, but no better than high 12s (usually low 13s).

Slushboxes are never faster than a properly shifted manual. ATs are easier to bracket race than manuals because they are more predictable. But they are not faster.

I think they were pretty well matched considering the Supra was a p.o.s. Supras are much stronger cars than that one. It must be on it's last leg, cause a twin turbo should have easily beaten the mustang.
