With the oem flywheel I agree that the rotating components of the 6spd are heavier, but very few mkiv owners that drag race run the oem flywheel. ...and if you're talking about the transmission itself, the auto is much heavier (I've carried both, so I'm speaking from personal experience).

Overall good post though ... as I posted earlier I very much agree with you that an auto is the way to go if you're serious about drag racing the mkiv...
