[Spridgets] WTB Ribcase Gearbox

[JohnD]

So, last year my transmission blew up and I put in a rebuilt" box that had
been sitting for 20 years. (Beggars can't be choosers, and I was at the
track with several willing helpers and a guy carrying around a spare
transmission for some reason). It lasted a couple of race weekends and made
a spectacular exit that felt like a broken halfshaft...only I still had 4th
gear to limp back to the paddock.

I now find myself in fairly emergent need of a ribcase gearbox. I know,
real racers get Richmond boxes with straight-cut gears and poly-vinyl
molybdenum ziberators, but I don't want to use up the limited supply. I'm
only making believe. It's all  performance art and a party at the end.

I would like to buy a transmission, hopefully within 250 miles of Ann
Arbor, MI but would also gladly wait for the UPS person, if he would come
very soon. In 2-plus weeks, the third in the 2015 Sprite-Midget Challenge
Series happens at Grattan Raceway in Grand Rapids and I don't stand a
chance running only in 4th gear. Forget what I said about art. Somebody's
going to win the series!

Between Detroit, Chicago, Indianapolis and Columbus, there must be a dozen
ribcase gearboxes. Do sell me one!
I'm a slug with email. Text me at 734-395-7414.
