Last October, I twisted the stock rear pretty bad. First time at the track on a sticky tire and my tubes weren't welded. I've since replaced the rear end with a built 13-14 take off consisting of a tru trac and moser axles. I also had another problem occurring with the car popping out of first gear on the launch. Hoping it was a stock clutch or rear end twisting each time problem.
I've come to the conclusion that if I still experience the car coming out of first gear on launch after swapping rears and upgrading the clutch, I am seriously going to take a look at going auto. I don't want to deal with having the 6060 rebuilt.
I started my research last night and stumbled across an article.

I then found some more information in some forums. Apparently its already listed on the Summit Racing website.

I then took it a step further to email the company directly for an idea on release date and idea of cost. All I got was a release date but it is better than nothing.

Is the 6R80E the ideal transmission swap for a GT500? Being it's a 6 speed will street ability be affected? Will it lose any power? Is this a foot brake + stall option or a full out transbrake? I have a lot to learn in regards to automatics/stalls/transbrakes. Feel free to share your thoughts or share some knowledge.
