I don't know about automatic transmissions but all the fast rotary's I've seen run a G-Force, Liberty or a Lenco all manual transmissions.

Auto trannys allow for a softer launch, less stress on the drivetrain, and more consistant shifting. Ever noticed the crowd when someone misses a manual shift?

I know bracket racers are fans of the automatics too. It's alot more consistent than a manual. The less the operator has control over, the better in bracket racing.
