RPM or jeffco, Dan Roberto (rpm) call him he will take your specs, and gear it right for you.
I would like to see more facts on the Team Moto boxes so far all I have seen or read about their boxes is just talk no facts I could verify myself.
Facts I do know is roberto is very pissed off about someone copied his un patent protected gear box and is selling in the same market, roberto also has a strong following and guys standing in line to defend him with unverifiable gibber jabber. What they spew might be fact their is no way to verify it since its biased bashing it carries very little weight. You also have the crowd where money is no object so paying 1500.00 more for the RPM box is not a issue.
Most importantly if their was failed boxes WHERE ARE THE PICTURES? And did Team Moto rectify the failed transmissions?
Every time I have called Dan Reberto I got a different price and a different story if you called him before using his boxes in larger buggy craze happen they were reasonably priced after supply and demand more than doubled then others started seeking alternatives and when about the Team Moto box showed up, think it was moskito that was telling us that Dan Reberto picked up one of the Team Moto boxes at a off road show and screamed something to the affect 'you copied my transmission" then proceeded to throw the Team Moto box as far as he could making a complete asshole out of himself. Cant blame him for being mad but he should direct his anger at himself.
I've seen enough pictures to make me purchase an RPM, and I've owned a quaif, both far superior to the team box.
I got my first bike powered mini buggy in 2001, and have seen them all come and go, stak was another rip off of RPM, they came apart at the seams.
Even the jeffcos had problems, all the reputable buggy builders, Yoshi, tompro, protodie, all use RPM.
Now in a light weight lower power buggy? Maybe a team box would work? I would still never buy one, and Dan (RPM) makes a cheaper low hp version of his box.
I think I paid $2200 for my high HP box.
