Ok Guys, what do you think....
Want to get a racing tranny for my track car with Sebring in mind. What's the best set-up? Is a LSD a good idea? Quaife? How about a cooler? What's an intermediate plate? Thanks for the all the help, I'm really green with trannys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

You want to be hitting redline in top gear at the end of your fastest straight. If you don't, you're geared too high. But you are Not hitting Peak Power at Redline, you've already past it and are the down slope Yeah, til you get to the next Track & don't have enough gear optimum is still optimum... even if you have to change boxes for each track thats why formula cars use hewlands and re gear for every track (pro's too) we build a duel purpose box for the same reason it has a useable "F" first gear some tracks are 1st-4th others are 2nd - 5th Very few people on this Forum have the $$ for Multiple Gearbox's for a DE Car |
