I’ve come to the conclusion that God was playin’ around with high-performance racing transmissions on the day he created Buster Keaton. I mean, the dude has a wicked idle, 15 acceleration gears, incalculable top end, an overdrive that nears warp speed, power-pack industrial clutch (sliding stops - whew) and I’ll bet his stick shift wasn’t bad, either!
Not to mention an internal rollcage instead of a standard-issue skeleton. 3/4” cold-rolled drill pipe, welded with lightning.
(yeah, 2 weeks til our first race and I’m becoming increasingly crazier. happens every year. bear with me. btw, The Navigator tested 2-one-hundredeths of a second off the track record this weekend. hee hee.)
