I found the magic switch

So this thing is a beast. 2006 4.8is, switched it to manual and ---

True story...(that always means it's a lie, but for real, true story).

I sat at the light against a Porsche SUV. He rumbled his, I looked at him...so I moved it to manual.
He hit the gas, I hit the gas, He saw my rear Michelins.

awesome.

I changed it because OP said he raced a Porsche.

At 15 years old when it came out The Fast and The Furious series was basically a milestone in my teenage years, I basically can recite the entire movie.

Well aware he was racing a Ferrari (550 Maranello I believe?) in the orange Supra TT.

That should have been Porsche Cayenne. Made him read these Michelins.
