Hi Endy,

DEPoint50 sent me over...basically you have 2 options....

1. Get transmission fixed and send to level 10...needless to say that's gonna be expensive, but worth it since you'll be addressing the root cause.

2. Get transmission fixed, get oil cooler...i recommend at least a 25 row setrab with high quality AN fittings and steel braided hose. I'm not sure where you're located but my local shop basically has the recipe for how to mount and setup the cooler.
Also, frequent transmission oil changes are necessary (every 10k miles) if you are tracking. The heat from tracking causes the fluid to break down quickly and then the torque converter starts to go

Lemme know if you have more questions.

Shoot, didnt know you replied until now. Yeah, I have been tracking the car about once/twice a year. As of late, I did throw on a transmission oil cooler and replaced the fluid. Unfortunately, the transmission has become worse than before and now, about 10% of my stop and go driving, it feels like a newbie being late in releasing the clutch as he's gassing it and then suddenly dumping the clutch.

I am looking into level10, but not before my warranty runs out. Gonna try to see if I can get a claim in before it expires. (in 2017). However, it is going to be down the line since I do plan/wish on SCing my car.

Thanks for the reply Eagle.
