Spitfire is an unknown quantity at this point
For anybody that was at the Silicon Valley Regional event at the San Jose Event Center, in San Jose, California. They probably saw our drivetrain, it seemed we were the only ones that used a timing belt pulled by pulley's

Quite a few people came by and commented on it. Though *when it works* it is effective, we had a LOT of problems with it. The tread slipped off numerous times and we broke 3 of those cheap tranny's they gave us. As one of my teammates said to someone who asked about our drivetrain: "Everyone likes our drivetrain but us"

It's a pain in the butt to maintain, but oh well.

btw, if you didnt know we are team 409
