yep,

to try to don't brake the tranny what we do is to don't push the car hard on first and second gear, specially on second gear that is the worst one.

Also we have spare transmissions so if we brake them we install a good one and them repair the damaged one...................

With the Renesis we don't see problems with 400 hp with the tranny,
the problem with our 20B's it's the torque, 416 pounds..........and 525 hp.
rgonza runs more hp and torque than me, he is over 600 hp, he already broke the tranny 5 times.
What we're doin now is using the cars with 8 psi of boost and until now we're not braking the tranny. We would keep the car's with only 420 hp aprox until rgonza makes the adapter to use the g-force transmissions.
