Not as many options out there as there used to be. Chassis-wise, they are the same.

Drivetrain & Gearing / Final gear for AutoX
« Last post by Ck_32 on February 05, 2024, 06:33:29 pm »I need FZ09 transmission ratios so I can plug into a final drive calculator and see which rear end I need for my auto x events.
I need to find out what final drive will get me to 70mph in 2nd and or 3rd. I?m trying to figure out which is best that won?t be a dog out of first, but not leave me shifting every 2 seconds.

General / Just bought a legend? Have some questions
« Last post by Ck_32 on February 05, 2024, 04:28:14 pm »So i just bought legend last week for a back up fun Autocross ?kart?.
Per the seller:
2020 chassis
FZ09
30-35 races on motor
Wilwood brake upgrade
Upgraded Heim?s
Bearing Spacers
CMG housing (not sure what that is)
Billstein with the availability to upgrade to afco
I looked over the car, from my limited knowledge with these. It looked good from a general mechanical and car perspective. The frame and sub frames looked straight, suspension looked good and straight.
What other things should I ask them before deliver or look at?
- How can you tell if the wheels are lightweight or not?
- For non competitive Autocross how many weekend sessions can this motor actually run before a rebuild? Does it ever need one if it?s not to be competitive?
- Can I run 93 Oct pump gas?
- What final gear would be good for autox?
- How can you verify what year chassis?
- Can you add a MT09 quick shifter to the FZ09 easily?
- What upgrades should I do to make it more suited for auto cross since spec rules don?t matter?
- How easy is it to repair body cracks?
What should I ask him about?
What should I do when I take delivery next week?
