That was them tripping thier main breaker. What team 25 had in 02 and in 03 was a servo actuated break that pushed into a whole drilled into one of thier drive gears that they used as a break since they were geared high both years so not much pushing power. The pin didn't come out all the way and thus when trying to moved they pulled a nice 220A or so and popped the breaker.
Matt, what method of shifting does that transmission that 461 is working on use? The only thing I could think of that does not require more than a lathe or mill would be a mesh shifter.
