once the car cooled all was fine. so, check the cable where it connects to the transmission and at the top of your engine for heat damage.

This sounds like exactly like my symptoms. I didn't know that the shifter cable ran over the engine and will be sure to check this out. Thanks for the input. I also melted and balled up my ps2s trying to stay with the pace of a 996 4 and turbo. The turbo was in and out of his PSM and could blast into corners much faster after a straight. 993s were on me as well as soon as I made a mistake in a corner...anyway just learning ....will do a post about this soon
