Gears and Rears,  we put our trust in the quality work of ROD FARROW for the changing up the gear ratio of our final drive from the original 2.50:1 to 3.50:1 with a spooled centre carrier. This change in gears means that the car could run over the current AA/DS record of 318mph and keep the engine rpm in a safe range.
Aurele Gagon (L), Ken, Justin Howat(R) roll out the drive assemble to load.


Thanks to Tony Rodrigues for his assistance and to Aurele for good wishes.
