  1. yes


  2. Shifting is an extremely important aspect of drag racing.

  3. They don't have to but they look much better if they do.

  4. Using an automatic transmission would take the whole point out of drag racing.  You would only rely on reaction time to get you down the track.  It atleast takes some talent to drive a drag car because you have to shift.  Doesn't take much talent put your foot on the gas and go in a straight line.

  5. No.  Automatics are more consistent because your shifts are the same every time.  Top Fuel and Funny Car classes use direct drive (no transmission) and a slide clutch.
