TRANSAXLE
Your FormulaSPEED features a 6 speed sequential no-lift shift transaxle specifically designed for this vehicle.
The gear selection mechanisms are sequential, with separate mechanically actuated reverse / neutral baulking mechanisms. The gear selection order is Rev - Neutral - 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th. The drive is taken from the engine via the clutch shaft, which turns input and pinion gears to drive the final transmission assembly.
Gear changing is effected through non-synchronising face dogs.
The FormulaSPEED spec gearing is:
