seems to be more guys going back to shaft cars in touring cars stock class, for the more instant power delivery.

My answer to that question is still pending, theres so much more that goes into a buggy's acceleration and top speed that its almost impossible to answer, i think more people would say that shaft drive is slightly better for stock, at this stage i dont think theres much in it, the db01 tranny is very simple, it has good amounts of belt wrap so in stock the belts can be run less tightly and the tranny is light weight, the belts and diffs in the db01 are much lighter than the shafts and diffs in the b44 for example, so my theory is all other things being equal, a db01 should be able to accelerate a little quicker than a b44, once i get my tekin rs speedy in a couple of weeks, i will be able to prove it or disprove it, lol
