Default trasmission/gears

I dont know too much about transmissions, but just wondering what would be good to use when racing. I have an automatic right now, kind of want to get a manual, dont really have the money. Would a shift kit be worth the money? What about changing the gears? Thanks for the information in advance!

I suggest you leave your car alone till you learned about drag racing, and figure out what you really want to do.

They Are Right Dude I Have Over $6000.00 Tied Up In My Ride And At The Moment It's Nothing More Than A High Dollar Rubber Shreader. If I Would Have Known More about Dragging I Would Have Spent The Money In Other Ways And Probably Be turning Alot Better Times Than I Am. You Can Have All The Horsepower and Torque In The World And If Your On Able To Use It ... It's Nothing More Than A Loud *** Smoke Bomb. LMAO. Sick
