I don't know anything about Lencos besides what I just read in your
post (which is a lot more than I knew before) :-), so I was wondering,
can you downshift with a Lenco, or is it a "one shot deal" where you
set it up on the starting line, run through the gears, and you're done?
Do they have a reverse?
The reason I'm asking is I wonder if it would be feasable to use
one in a street driven vehicle, or wether it would be more trouble than
its worth. Also, any idea how much they cost?
Thanks!!
