I am checking interest in repro 904 main shafts. I think I can get them either made or made out of 901 shafts for much less than the $1800-2000 that they are commanding now.

We ran it for a season with all the gears intact but locked out as a "proof of concept". As it now sits there were some more mods that we were quite a bit more work than we were willing to do if "things" didn't work out...like, is there enough motor to pull that F gear off the line in an expeditious manner? Will we find a course that we run out of 3rd gear? No problem....onward. It is still easy to return to a 5 speed.
Autocross is still a place that you can let your imagination run wild.....unlike too many other forms of motor sports. In this case we've stripped the car to the bare essentials needed to get it to the other end of the course. |
