I rarely use 1st while driving my Ulster rep. It pulls away in 2nd with no problems. And fourth always seems a bit short (I mean it feels like there ought to be a 5th). Is it possible to have the gearbox modified, to alter the ratios to make 1st usable and 4th higher?
Cheers

On my Ulsteroid I fitted some higher ratio primary gears in the gearbox. They are straight cut from Keith Rawson, so it whines in anything but top gear, but I can get the speedo past 60 in third with corresponding increase in first and second. With these gears it usually best to start in first, but I am general very happy with the set-up.
