The rpm gives it a broad running range in gears so no shifting is required.
the car will go over 75 mph in first with a 3.73 first gear and 95 in second so it will cover 99.9% of all autox with 1 or 2 gears. Both intake and exhaust valves are titanium plus it has some very good valve springs along with Carrillo rods, a light Moldex crank and a dry sump.
