Back on topic, the few stock TLs I have seen at the track were 5AT and all ran times similar to that of the 2G TL-P. As far as driver error goes, there is little that can go wrong when driving an automatic. (And for the drag racing novices here, RT has no bearing on ET.)

that shaves a good second off there...
When my car was stock, I ran a 14.7, that's hell better than 15.6

I have driven several models of both the 2G and 3G TL and both launch easily and with little fanfare.

Dunno but my TL hangs with my buddys G35 Coupe on a roll. I actually pulled from him on the highway several times and he has a 6mt.
I was surprised myself.

When I drove the TL 5AT, I felt that it had a VERY respectable midrange. It was just the off the line performance that I did not like.
That said, I may need to rent a TL and bring it to the track myself just to see what I can post.
