The Tri Ax may have been an after thought in the thread but it was top priority from the get go. The only question was: Which one?
First drive impressions:
Whoa!!! So this is what you guys been dealing with when it comes to a low first gear ratio? How the heck do you take off without breaking loose the tires? It seems all but impossible. Mabye it's that fierce clutch I got? Puck's on both sides, no chatter, it just hooks, the tires chirp and the car goes, done. Your across the intersection before you can blink.  Mind you, I'm still running the 10" SLICKS right now, I haven't put on the street tires yet, which will likely be a complete joke when it comes to traction.
Feels really good, a totally new experience, yikes, it's scary like I never owned one before. I used to do 65 mph in first and STILL had trouble taking off without chirping the tires! Plenty work left to do before I can go for a cruise, just a quick around the block, lay some rubber, watch the drive shaft spin (that was interesting...).
