4) How heavy is that?
5) I can't really see the dog gear... but can you shift on fly?

Good luck at the competitions and if you guys are at any event that I am attending, I will make sure to stop by and check you guys out. =)
To answer a few of your questions:
1) High gear is 21.96 to 1
Low gear is 65.88 to 1 (both of these are to the wheel)
2) Yes, one 2.5 inch per side
3) Yes, but a small redesign would be required
4) A whole whooping 8.8 pounds per each side with motor and pneumatic shifter
5) Most definitely

We will be competing at the Trenton and Anapolis Regionals
