G8 GT has a 6peed auto tranny with a shiftable gate and a sport shift tronic type mode. The G8 GXP has a 6.2L 6 speed manual tranny. Hope that clears that up.
that was a evo mr so driver doesnt really matter cuz its a automatic and i dont think the evo mr was using the launch control but i think the evo gsr would beat the g8, the evo gsr is faster in a line then the evo mr
thumbs down for defeating the purpose of AWD. The G8 is RWD correct? it beat the mitsu off the line in the RAIN. obviously a bad driver in the evo. those G8s are a real bang for the buck.

the MR has style and it s fast, the potiac looks like a 80 taxi
it dont matter….. the Evo X MR is not quick in straightlines…. I beat them all the time in my Evo X-GSR
the G8 GT is beating the driver lmao…. Plus the EvoX MR is slower than the GSR! Race the GSR, to see the difference…
your right! thats a FACT! the Evo X MR is not for straight line racing. it is (slow) The Evo X-GSR is for straight line racing….

MR’s werent made for straight line racing
Check out the rematch.
evo would win from dig in the rain if he would have wanted to AWD
Aren’t all G8 GTs shift automatic!?
Hmm interesting. I thought the evo would be a little faster especially in the wet.
@downeysoftness Yah I know that. u just described it wrong.
its a sport shift setting manually control over the auto-tragic gear box
Why didnt u put the EVOs SST in the Sport mode?
I thought Pontiac G8s didnt have manual transmissions.
Yep, looks about right. I still respect the EVO though…especially since my G8 gets stuck in the snow a lot(need all season tires BAD…lol).
yea i agree pretty awesome driver in the G8 but really bad driver in the evo
No. It launched at 2000 rpms. No-one was really trying to push it in the rain.
tell me the truth,…… YOU DIDNT HAVE the Evo X-MR rev to 6000 rpms on the dead stops. Right?
The MR is slower than the GSR….
Both are Slow..
