In Episode 9 (Part 4,) Brock continues ‘go fast’ modifications, this time to the rear of Gixzilla. Instead of duplicating a home garage or side of the road bearing install, Brock shows you how it’s done using professional tools and techniques.

Riddle: What is the question that has no answer… but has a definite answer? Question: “What is the best gearing for my_____(you fill in the blank)?” Answer: Brock touches on how to begin the quest for the perfect gearing, especially when you have no experience with the machine. Of course and as always, he addresses these issues in a nontechnical manner, while also providing advanced information that makes professionals take note.
