: Does anyone know whether you can buy these gears from Small Parts? You would need to be able to buy them from Small Parts in order to use them this year, correct?

There is another alternative. You can buy the material from Small Parts and hobb or otherwise manufacture your own. I've heard that some teams use wire EDM (Electrcal Discharge Machining I think) to cut their own gears. Great if you've got an EDM house as a sponsor, $$$ if you don't.

Take your pick
