CL-S vs New Intrepid R/T

Well I was going at the car wash today, then I encounter a new Dodge Intrepid R/T at the light. So I took a quick glance at the driver, and it's a woman piloting the car . So she looks at me with little smile on her face with a little attitude, so i took my VSA off and leave it in auto(I dont know why). Lights turn green!!! boom where off we both got a good launch 1st gear gain 1 car length 2nd gear 2.5 car length, 3rd gear 3 car length then i shut it down.... Oh yea the woman aint good lookin either so she deserve to get whooped.... Oh we both caught another light but she didn't want to line up besides me. I think they got the same engine as the Chrysler 300M 3.5L V6..

can you tell me the difference between SS and auto mode? i don't understand why at a dead stop racing w/ ss is better than racing in just auto

Well if you leave it in auto the car will shift by itself in it's specified rpm, but if you put in SS(Sport Shift) you can hold your rpm till redline to maximize your engine power... The SS mode in CL-S will automatically shift to 2nd gear but after that you can hold your rpm till redline...
