Yes, I have an RX8/1900 combo. I ordered a Traktion drive but I have pinions we can try too. Hopefully we can try this out in a couple weeks.

I plan to run the Traktion drive and pinion back to back too.

That being said, I was planning MMP with a T8 1900. I think Chris mentioned they were going to do RX8 and t8 1900. We're at the same track, so someday we should hopefully be able to do an apples to apples comparison. I'm very curious now about this performance difference, and if the MMP can be tuned up to match the RX8 like I've done with friends' MMP's for short course.

@ Chris, try not to let me forget to do this if you're willing. I have the array of pinions so we can match that too. I'll be doing direct drive w/ spur, which should give a very comparable result if you have that too, since we won't have clutch settings to include or vast weight differences.
