Yes, 1st and 2nd stay the same, and I would not want them any shorter. With our final drive and tire size 1st is only useful for getting on the trailer. With 2nd good only to 62mph, it is only used on very tight turns, any shorter and we would have to use 3rd for the slow stuff. The new ratios are: 3rd 1.474 Kaaz 4th 1.208 Kaaz 5th 0.961 Kaaz With this setup on most tracks we will use four gears VS only two or three with the current setup, offering much better acceleration. We will see 120mph in 5th at our redline, perfect for Road America.

Does it have lap times? Wondering if they beat what we did with the B-Spec car last year.

This is all part of the reason we pulled the plug on took the 2012 Yaris to H Production. So far only Honda and us (Toyota) have submitted the parts for our BS suspension kits to SCCA for testing, many manufacturers are still playing around. This is the second year the cars have been legal to run and people are still screwing around. And I would fully expect a manufacturer to send a hot car to a magazine test, you want your stuff to be on top.

Can't wait to hear it on track. The sound of shifts on a close ratio gearbox is like sex!

2-3-4-5 all used at Buttonwillow, a shift every 1500rpms. The close-ratio gears rock.

Sweeeet!! Sounds like 4th gear could have been a hair longer though but close gears are so much better.
