Nothing exciting

Of course..no manufacturer will warranty a car if you are racing it. The car is not indestructible ..you do this at your own expense....look at the (911's) warranty the same...

Theres stations in my surrounding area that sell 100 octane unleaded. Most race tracks have it as well

Yes, it is normal. Since ATF is more commonly found in stores, many manufacturers are/have been using that fluid in their transmissions (both auto and manual).

My '02 GT calls for Motorcraft ATF, and that is a manual as well.
I read that Ford has been working to switch all transmissions to the same fluid as new models roll out.

Nice to see a lightweight battery listed!

Also, those spring rates seem a little off to me. I'm no suspension engineer but I'm used to seeing slightly higher rates front to rear. Those are significantly higher in the rear.

Also, the tire pressure display and digital gauges are a nice feature as well.

"Your vehicle has electronic controls to reduce power and/or limit RPM to reduce powertrain temperatures."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Another nice feature that could save your engine or transmission (possibly diff, too).

"Use race ramps to load the vehicle"
Good thing I already have a custom set.

Limp mode?

Hopefully Ford did a better job cooling the GT350 than GM did with the C7Z.

For the record, this is one of the reasons I went with a GT350 over a Vette.
