Good thread.
Yea im a 5 spd guy myself, if i went auto, it wouldnt be as fun imo.
one thing you guys didnt mention, was the way slicks will/could burn the clutch, i been leaving at 5k on slicks for years now, not as often though since i use my car daily, also my car isnt making the power some of your turbo/blower stangs are, but my rearend probaly has 200+k on it, no problems yet, but im expecting to snap one soon, usually my king kobra clutch starts stankin something fierce on a 5k launch now a days....good luck, and nothing looks cooler imo then a stang yankin the tires on slicks!!
