before being used in track driving.

The front, if equipped with AWD, and
rear axle fluid temperatures may be
higher than when driving in severe
conditions. Drain and refill with new

Caution

During a first time track or racing
event, high axle temperatures can
occur. Damage could be caused to
the axle and would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
drive as long or as fast the first
time the vehicle is driven on the
track or raced.

.

The axle lubricant should be
replaced with new lubricant.

.

Additional cooling capacity is also
required for continuous
competitive driving.

Track Battery

If equipped, this is a lightweight, low
power battery for track use only.
Remove after each event.

Only use this battery when
temperatures are above freezing.

Store in a cool, dry location. Charge
periodically to keep the state of charge
from getting too low. A battery tender
can be used.

When installing or removing the track
battery, steps must be followed to
calibrate the electronic throttle
control. See
