No trans this year. We have built what we call a motor box that we mount our motors and victors on. This makes for a very clean and nice looking machine. In the past we have used 4 sims and 2 FP motors for our drive, this year we are using only 4 sims. The FP's are driving our 4 bar linkage. Also new this year is a 6 wheel drive (3 per side) with a serpentine chain drive with chain tensioner. Works very nicely! The center wheels are lowered a tad bit for easy maneuvering.
