    Great Sheets, better than one I made to look for “sweet spots” in gear ratios.

    REQUEST:  Please change the format for the number fields.  Currently if you dont enter voltage as 11. it gets entered as .11, if you dont enter RPMs as  20350. it gets entered as 203.5  etc.

    Ditto for the teeth on the gears.

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
