What's your car run in the 1/4?
As for the auto, it will actually help an inexperienced driver rather than hurt. Easier to launch and truthfully, the autos are no slow pokes.
If you're going to give it a run, I would suggest that you practice a great start/launch and keep the race under a 1/4 mile (they'll start to run you down).
From the looks of your modifications, I would highly recommend a set of gears. Auto = 4.10s; 5-speed 3.55s or 3.73s.
Good luck,
E
