Sorry to hear Joe... I hope your car is back out there in the track in a timely fashion.

This would have been the 19th day. I think anyone who had a car built before November 2015 is in the clear

That seems to be the case. Hopefully we can eventually figure out the window of production dates that are affected.

Not bad, you got a lot more days out of the cars than some of the other Norcal guys. I'll continue to track mine and try to shake out any tranny gremlins. Hope you get the car back soon and back on the track.

10/15 build for mine with 8300 miles and 6 track days. On my way to Smokies in a little over 60 days with 2 more track days and a lot of shifts in and out of 3rd over 5 days.

You will be the test for my theory that anything before 11/15 will be fine!

I hope it is that simple. Then it becomes is it weld equipment, geometry, metallurgy or just a bad design.

Is that the case for all UK cars? Your dealer should be able to give you the date.
