I'll send them an email to see if I can get a price.

Just in case you didn't know Dario Balestri is now running for TM in Italy. His mechanic is Columbini. He finished 2nd at the italian championships last week one lap behind Torini. He ran the fastest lap in the main. He probably would have won had he not had a 40 second off track excursion. Congrats Dario. I have been told Dario will be at the worlds. Torini ran a RRR. This was a fast company race and Dario put away some pretty heavy hitters.

Hi mfavela,
The 20T just changes the internal ratio, to make the gearing longer.
The Brookland track has a very long straight, with an almost flat out corner onto it, so the idea was to gear as long as we could, so when the tyres wore down we still had plenty of gearing.
The motors i ran would pull any gearing, and i find that although revs sound nice, i prefer a long geared car, for a start it makes it easier to drive and quicker for me(we dont have sprayed tracks) and there is a limit that we can go down to in first (limit is traction) no point in spinning wheels !
Overdrive, is just so can run smaller front tyres, to be honest i have never tried same size all round, so i cant compare the two, maybe i should !
Hope this helps.
Motorman, thats great news about Dario, do you know if he is going to the euros ?
