Yes it used to have a close ratio 4 speed but last time Tim rebuilt the tranny he went with a wide ratio in order to get a little more first gear. Driving up onto the trailer killed the clutch at one race which was a bummer. Having a fifth gear would make the car much easier to drive around town and in the pits. But then you have to shift across the gate a couple of times which is a bit of a downside. It would be nice to have a H pattern for 2 thru 5 and then have a granny gear 1st for the pits and pulling on a trailer.
