I have a 2016 P500 on 37s and if I get the RPM too high it will get stuck in gear and i have to cut it off and rock it to get it back shiftable. Any ideas on what would be causing that?

The 37" tires and the high rpm are the cause. Especially when it comes with 24" OEM probably the ECU is revolting due to the readings its getting.

Would there be any way to solve the issue other than smaller tires? I’ve seen P500s hit rev limiter in gear before and it not happen to them which is why I was curious why mine does it?
What set up do they have? Is the machine stock?
If the stock with ur setup, it's just a matter of time

Did this start after the IGR & portals or have you been running this set up for a while?

The P5 doesn't exactly have a speed limiter, it limits RPM based on Gear position and Final shaft speed (speed sensor). If any of those are out of a given range in a given gear it will go into a fault mode...... not shift and usually show the dash for gear position "-".
