I recently started tracking my 2016 GT MT82 and I keep reading about transmission heat and lockout issues.Are those problems legitimate or overblown? Do minor preventative issues like this air scoop make any difference?Thanks...

Another awesome Wednesday night at the track, I made a lot of progress and improvement this session, knocked nearly 3 seconds off my previous best and most importantly hit apexes much more consistently, thanks Dave_w! They had turn in and apex... (see full post)
