In general the Auto R/T's do see better ET's and 0-60 sprints. You have to trade off however the fact that the autos do see higher drivetrain loss over the manuals AND the exhaust system is a bit more restrictive.

Back in the old days you could easily outshift the old automatics if you were good with the clutch and stick, however, modern automatics, especially the auto in the Challenger, is just plain faster.

From my experience automatic R/T's are running very low 13's (13.00 to 13.3) and the manuals are running higher 13's.
