Message	Do you even realize how a synchronized transmission works, much less a sequential? (You'd be a fool to make an 8-speed racing transmission and not build a sequential) Also, titanium is a horrible choice of material for a transmission. If you do any research at all you will discover that it has very bad wear in frictional situations. Just ask the people that use their titanium keys every day. Remember: Stoplights timed at 35 mph are also timed at 140 mph "The world is going badly when the Germans put cup holders in their cars." -- Tim O'Neil (Team O'Neil Rally School)
