The first thing to "go" would be the fluid, as the v2 is engine oil fed and the v3 (normally happy on the street) uses a small amount of oil in the case which is not cooled or cycled out.


From there, the overheating oil could lead to bearing failure, seal failure, locking up, etc.


Just my input before others with actual failures report in.


IMO if the car sees any track duty, v2 is a safe bet
