May want to run it by your mechanic but my understanding is that the dual clutch trans can handle it, whereas the older trans in the 430/360 could only handle it a few times. I know it's certainly true with the PDK and I've heard the same about the 458 transmission.

Man change up your wheels and tires and try to get into the 10-second barrier. The times are very consistent with other results.

Won't void the warranty, but the clutch wouldn't be warranty anyways. That's my guess...nothing will break but it won't last. Porsche was the same, they didn't care...
