    Ring and Pinion 3.78, 3.54 or 3.25

    Why there appears a difference in opinions, is due to the different opinions in what the 26% reduction means. It's a reduction in the engine rpms, and not the gear ratio. You'd think they'd both work out to the same answer, but unfortunately they don't. Whey the O/D is in low, the input...

    Roads in the old days Australia

    A run in 1979 of some vintage cars to the most northern point of Australia, Cape York. Starting around 4:50 demonstrates what bull dust can be like. The blue Dodge at 0:25 (302 registration) was on it's first run after its restoration. It is still in our local club...

    No need to go 70mph

    There was a story that went with the video to tell you all what they did with the car. I can’t remember it all, but the wheels were specially made sand cast aluminium made to look like old wooden wheels. Photo's of the wheels start round photo #111 http://www.mat.fi/projects/68
