right now i am focused on the reverse in the busa box  concept   i am spun on that idea    and will persue this until i have all the info , then i can get away from a reverser box and just go with simple diff  not looking to go offroad anyway   
 I have witnessed both the old mickey thompson stadium series buggy races and FIA autocross  when i was in europe  and the autocross guys beat on their  sh!t just as hard if not harder than the north american guys   and very few DNF's
If not for any offroad use the quaiffe.

loyalty to the American people."

If it were me I'd calc the second gear ground speed at say 1500 engine rpm(just barely over idle) and see if that high a MPH was acceptable before I did the 1st gear/reverse gear conversion. I think you'll be surprised how high second is compared to first. It wouldn't be anything I'd want. Now, IF the second thru 6th were custom ratios that had second lower than stock and 6th slightly higher than stock and a more favorable split between them they'd really have something.
