Actually... considering you are close to doubling the engines power output with his 500 something to the wheels tune that he has hammered successfully without any drivetrain failures I would say the 6F55 is pretty stout.

And I suspect that LMS does quite a bit of tweaking for the transmission in their tunes.

And as they have mentioned repeatedly, a bit of extra trans fluid over the FULL line helps prevent cavitation and foaming especially in high speed maneuvers.

LMS recommends a half a quart (16oz)of extra Mercon LV over the full line.  They mentioned this is standard procedure for service vehicles.

In any event... our platform rocks when it comes to dollar/per tenth in the ET.

;)  might have been a bit of sarcasm :D

Yeah it is true,  I am not sure why the rated it so low but I assume there are reasons.  The upgraded sister GM transmission the 6t80 only handles something like 40 more TQ ..

Primarily for insurance reasons, to remain classified as a family car instead of a sports sedan.

All State classifies my SHO as a sport sedan.

Hmm.  Originally it was meant to NOT be classified that way.  Insurance companies may have upped their game since then.  How much do you pay, if I may ask?

$400 every 6 months... $500 collision and $100 comprehensive. "Gold" package from all state...

It's a lot considering I don't drive it much... and they are not gonna cover anything that happens at the track...

Good drivers discount, multipolicy discount, etc...

Not bad at all for a SHO.  About what we pay for the 2010 Fusion Sport, with soon to be 100K on it.

I guess after a long consideration it can be done!!!!!!

1)Find roughly 10 guys/gals needed for a private track rental.

2)Find yourself a good reputable Track and rent it for the day or half the day which gives you plenty of sufficient time for prep,which in better terms means no lines =less heat soak.

3)Throw a couple of Beers to the maintenance crew to make sure its fully well prepped before take off,but usually are @ private rentals.   :beer2:

4)Mother nature on your side you should be Golden. Z

I called MIR about this... I believe it was $800 to rent a lane on an off day with basic prep.
