Know your comment about dutch/german numbers translation though, they say eight and twenty instead of twentyeight. weird. On the other hand, the US still thinks that inches and feet is a good system to measure distance.....
Yup, snappy acceleration
You wouldn't believe the amount of hassle I went through to find how to get max acceleration out of the 705..
Anyway, sorry not Germany but Austria. In fact it's Serpent Austria. The link is as follows;

Scroll further down and you can see 14T first gear pinions and 17T second gear pinions.
