At my last DE event, while on track I noticed that my oil temp guage went dead as well as the fuel guage and the tachometer. After the session, I also found that I had no brake lights. I replaced the fuse and everything came back to life. During the next session, the same thing happened again after only 3-4 laps. However, this time I found that after having lost my guages, my tach was showing about 1800 rpm although I was probably at 3500-4000. As I came in to the pit and hit the brakes, the tach went dead to 0.

I replaced the fuse again. No more track sessions. On the 70 mile trip home, no fuse problem. In fact, normal street or highway driving will not blow the fuse. Oh yeah, right before the DE event, I had my wrench install a sideshift transaxle. Previous DE events never displayed any fuse problems. Any ideas? Thanks
