I’m not sure I’d put money on it but I think we’ll all be surprised. You’re a good test too, lots of power, lots of tire and you there’s nothing harder on a transmission than an autocross (no rolling start, and all low gear fast shifts). I think if it’ll survive an autocross it’ll survive the track (maybe heat would come into play on the track but a cooler would solve that).
