dunno. they say 8 weeks for the gears to be designed and built. i think hopefully 12 weeks for that part. i am a realist.

i didnt go off-the-shelf, i went full custom tailor-made to my specs. Kevin put some time into it to make a good setup.

its not necessarily about max speed per gear. its about gear change rpm drops. set it up to have ~25-2600 rpm drop per gear. staying > 600AWHP the full pass.

mid/low 9 sec and right around 145 is the final goal.
