I have run SRF for 3 seasons and about 15 track days without changing. No hit of soft pedal. Love this stuff and that it’s wet boiling point is so high. Does endless repel moisture like SRF does?

Pros don't skip gears. Otherwise might as well drive a DTC or an Auto. Let it figure out how and when to shift.
