all i can say is TRUE, TRUE, TRUE!!
true that its lots of money

true that i will wrap it around a telephone pole

and true to all the other shit you said too!
here is the plan: 60mph car finished in the next 4-6 weeks. i would like to say it would be done sooner than that but just being realistic when i consider the money and time.
does anyone here know where to get a 8mm shaft pinion gear that will mesh with these 1/5 scale gears?
