Virginia has a temporary trip permit allowing you to drive back. You need supporting paperwork like a Bill of Sale but its $5 and allows you to drive from the origin city to the final destination one time. Not sure if CA has something similar.

I know the PDK is an amazing transmission but my point was that the high performance torque converter autos have caught up to where DCT transmissions are. There isn't a big gap like there used to be. Plus torque converter autos can rev match downshifts so the chassis isn't upset. I never said...
A black roof is super easy to do and only a couple hundred dollars. Considering 10k ADM is a good price for the car. You can add your stripes and black roof and still be ahead at least $3000. I would buy it and don't look back. Or you can vinyl wrap the whole car if you would like.

How much extra fluid capacity is there with the cooler and lines in place? That alone will help with track time. If the system works as designed you shouldn't have any problems. Looking forward to an update!

Does it really matter? He can spend his money however he wants. If he doesn't have a family his expenses will be much lower. He also has a civil engineering degree so he has proved he is more than capable of making decisions. Six figures is more than enough to afford a car like this.

+1. Heat buildup is the issue, swapping fluids won't do much. The fluid isn't breaking down prematurely because the car is preventing that at a certain temp.
Lethal tracked their Tech pack car with no issues. Only difference is that it was catless. I think some more testing needs to be done...
