Brinn-Won't go into reverse with motor running

[Brian Gray]

another reason why most teams prefer BERT. also for the people who prefer made in USA products keep in mind much of the work on the Bert parts is done by many fine folks right here in ohio and alabama as well as other states.

just a few facts that are good to know.

btw i will take brinns and falcons in on trade for new bert transmissions.

This is turning into a Brinn bash session with some, but the Gen 2 Bert is also a turd. There are few perfect pieces out there, it seems.

I have 60+ night on my Falcon without a rebuild and plan on putting another season on it next year. I had the same issue shifting into low/reverse, I stumbled across my solution one night this year while bolting on my shifters. I was tightening them too tight...I have nylock nuts and just snug them...problem solved. Not saying its the fix, just passing along what goofy thing worked for me. ~Good Luck~

MasterSbilt_Racer,judging from your replies to different post's,you must be a (MASTER)on any subject,concerning dirt late model racing.This includes Chassis setup's,What fuel to use,and now transmissions,etc.

I don't think that anyone on here is trying to turn this thread into a Brinn bash session,only you.

Let me ask you this!What late model do you have,and where do you race?Or do you have a Mod?and where do you race.

I will reserve any further comment,untill you answer the above questions.

Funny coming from someone who doesn't disclose anything about themselves!

I am a former LM racer, and current crew chief. I have been in dirt racing for over 25 years. I have a BSME in Mechanical Engineering. I am employed in the materials testing industry.

And I said nothing bad about Brinn. Perhaps your reading comprehension is poor.

First of all I never indicated that you said anything that is derogatory about Brinn,and as far as reading comprehension is concerned,you need to learn to understand,and comprehend the king's english.

Second of all,what late model did you own,or drive?The reason I asked is I have been associated with dirt late model racing for over 55years,and perhaps I would know you.You state you are a current crew chief,for who?

WOW! a BSME in Mechanical Engineering,and you do material testing.(WITH THAT SAID,YOU SHOULD BE DOING THE TIRE TESTING AT THE LOCAL TRACKS)
