Hi guys. I've had my 370Z for 3 years and the first time I really had fun with the car was last night when some friends and I met up for some late night twisties. We don't have any tracks in the vicinity so I have never tracked the car. I was most of the time in 3rd gear (manual mode) at high revs and the engine temp never went over 205. I probably was driving for about 10 to 15 minutes. Would this harm the automatic transmission to be at high revs in a single gear for an extended period of time? I also noticed that every so often when I went into 4th gear it wasn't so smooth. Remember this is the first time I've ever driven the car this way and maybe this is how it's supposed to be. Thanks
