[Fot] Straight cut timing gear set

[Jack W. Drews]

I just completed assembly of a customer car, including installation 
of a gearbox that had been converted to straight cut gears with dog 
synchronizers. I took a brief drive on a local highway. That 
synchronizer system is absolutely amazing and a joy to use. I don't 
know if it's an advantage from the power standpoint, but I'd guess 
the effortless shifting would be worth a half-second to a second on a 
Road America course lap time.
