So since I have put the MGW in the car and started driving it hard, I have been fighting rough shifting and lockouts.
At the track its the 1-2 shift and on roll races I am consistently missing the 3-4 and it is pissing me off.
I added a WOT box to the car, but now I am looking into possibly better fluids for the drivetrain.

Any opinions on Redline MTL? I have heard that is like Magic on these trans from other cars with TR6060's. My other fallback would be Amsoil or lastly Mobil1.
Currently the car has Royal Purple Syncromax in it and I think the rear probably have Royal Purple too. Coicindentally enough this is the second 8.8 I have had with rear whine that had Royal Purple in it as well.

Any suggestions from guys that beat their cars hard and race them alot?

I've been happy with Mobil1 for the diff and trans...DD with 2-3 HPDE days per year.

Do you focus on hard/fast shifts on HPDE though like with drag racing?
I had Mobil 1 in my Sn95 with a T5 and everyone wondered how I kept that thing together. I guess that is a testiment for Mobil1. lol

Very limited 'hard shifts' for me durning events. Sometime a few quick heal-toe downshifts, but nothing crazy.
Yea downshifts dont seem to be an issue for me. I rarely do it, but they seem smooth. Its more so the banging gears with quick acceleration

Ok, So I am thinking of doing the AMSOIL Signature Multi Vehicle ATF and their 75/140 severe gear oil.
I've been reading good things on other tr6060 based car forums.
