I am just wondering because I have a VERY steep gear with little top end.

Hmmm. It says I am good to go. I'll definitely give it a go as soon as I get this beast to pass inspection.

Thanks for the info.

That rear gear will probably get pretty hot on the Nordschleife when driven at speed there.

I am sure it will, but I guess I just had not thought too much about it. I will definitely going to have to try though. I cannot pass up on the oppurtunity while I am here and I do not know of anybody that does gears (that will be here past FEB).
