I am wondering what happened to this gearbox. If there's any insight as to the causes of such wear, you have people listening. There are probably plenty of other people who share similar curiosities to those who have posted. If you could, I would like to see the gears from inside that casing a bit better. I'm interested in seeing some close ups of the extent of the wear, and from what stage the wear was primarily occurring.

Team 696 experienced wear on the 3rd stage reduction of our gearboxes, but nothing to any extreme like this. We were just in that same boat as many other teams this past season in that regard.
