Default My 05 s2k vs 04 350z auto

I just recently picked up an 05 s2k and before that I never really drove stick except for a few times on my friends car. Anyways my friend has an 04 auto Z with a pop charger. We did a few races and from a stop I can pull on it till the end of 4th then it reals me in. From a roll I can only hang for a bit (I'm at 5500 to 6000 RPM) then it pulls. Is this right or am I just a shitty driver?

I think you should have beat an auto one. Not quite sure what a pop charger is?

Pop charger is an intake, I'm pretty sure. Since you're new to stick, learn to shift faster and you'll be amazed at the result.
