I know you probably get alot of success stories from your products so this one might not surprise you much, however everyone I tell it to around here does not want to believe it. I finished this car in 1990. It has been bracket raced every weekend almost, and street driven quite a bit in these last 10 - 11 years. The car leaves with the wheels in the air and carries them to the 60ft clocks normally. Now here is where people start looking at me like I am a nut. It is the same gear I started with ten years ago. Oh... and.... it is a Pro Gear! My wife drives the car now and she is very competitive to say the least. We were at the race track last night and after she completed her last time trial she came back and described a clunking noise coming from the rear of the car. Well.... after all of these years, (By the way I removed it the season before last after everyone told me it should not still be in there. It was fine!) It finally broke. I got on the Internet this morning and found your web page and seen the photo contest you have going on So...along with my story here I am sending you a photo of Melanie in our Datsun leaving the starting line a month ago or so with a Ten year old Richmond "Pro" Ring and Pinion. We both say thank you. Brad and Melanie Barkley ~Wichita Ks~ <> There are more pics on our website: http://sites.netscape.net/zracerbarkley/home/barkleyHOME.html
