[alfa] Transaxle weak points



Never had a turbo V6 car, but the high HP Milano IMSA race car and ITS 
GTV6 are both driven hard. The only failure we have seen over the last 8 
years of racing are ring/pinion breakage. One tightened up LSD unit went 6 
years between rebuilds. Upon disassembly and inspection everything was ok, 
only wear was on the friction discs. 

Donuts do not break unless you have drag race or dump the clutch starts. 
With enough torque the clutch will slip upon up shifts. High performance 
clutchs are very expensive for V6 cars.
