Just ran at the Victorian Onroad Champs over the weekend with the TE
Car was handling great but a couple of trans probs reared their head

Problem 1: Has anyone else had trouble with the SL6 2speed bouncing between gears under hard acceleration after it's shifted when there's a lot of load on the trans?
Problem 2: Stripped 1st gear spur about 15mins into my Semi but have never stripped an SL6 spur ever before then? It was about 40 degrees C and I'm wondering if the heat and the longer race caused the spur to overheat. The teeth look kinda melted. Not your normal sheer marks
