Gear box oil level?
Just wanted to check first.... I've done a few track days and as normal I check all levels all the time with out fail...as you do, I've noticed the gear box oil level changes from time to time. From sitting on the full line to not showing any thing on the dip stick (even the day after?) Checked again a few weeks later and full again? Where does it go? I've made sure its on level ground and I got some gear box oil to fill it up thinking I had a leak some were and now found it full again? The drive system and gear box is running sweet and never given any trouble so I'm not worrying, just need to find what every one else does and will this non show on dipstick when on track cause a gearbox problem?

It is very sensitive to non-level ground, and obviously changes with temp - should be measured cold.
