My brother called it running out of talent which was pretty funny. When I am driving it on the street it shifts great. I contacted CC5S and they put me in touch with Tremec. My TKO was built at the end of 05 and when I gave Tremec the numbers off the tag they said there was a problem with the shift lug design during the time mine was built that caused a shifting problem. I had the new lugs in my hand with in 3 days. I don't plan to replace them until this winter but when I do I will also recheck the run out before I reinstall the transmission. Just thought I would post this to add to the info on this thread if anyone else is running out of talent going into 3rd gear on the track.
Wow , its funny you should say this .
I'm having the same problem.
I thought it was just me.
Maybe I'll call Tremec.
