The New JT5 Enduro Gear Set
The success of the JT5 RC Model in vintage and historic racing has been proven worldwide since 1995. In an effort to improve the gearbox for more severe rally and endurance racing we have made several major improvements. Previous manufacture of our exclusive gear design was made in the UK. We broke off relations with the UK company because they started to copy and pirate our designs. The new "Enduro" design is an accumulation of two years studying the previous model RC in action and working with the same gear companies that make transmissions for NASCAR. The RC model 5 speed design uses "face tooth contact" spur gears similar to Formula One transmissions. The straight cut gears eliminate the heavy thrust loads and high heat that are normally generated by stock helical cut gears. Although helical cut gears are quiet and stronger for normal and high performance driving, heat and thrust loading of the gear train can offset that gain in strength.
