Shame really, the gearing for initial sprinting and technical stuff is spot on, Krinksie's going down the right route with sorting out a CQ 'box (hopefully he'll find one available soon), and Ray Reid's going exactly the same way, boost pick-up is quicker and fragility is similar to a 5 speed Ur 'box. It will transform the car.

Well after last weekend and running a WR box with it's engine rebuild and head work, the car went like absolute stink. It was painful trying to keep my head in one place. I could tell it was so much quicker but Andy reckoned it wasn't??!!?? But the spectators that came to us after each run weren't lying!! Cq gearbox ( if it lasts) is gonna make me a cripple....
