The long awaited US debut of the Albins ST6-i. In a weekend full of fireworks, Robby Gordon was the first to cross the finish line in his no. 77 SPEED Energy/Toyo Tires Trick Truck equipped with the new Albins ST6-i. After a questionable call by race officials, Robby was penalized fifteen minutes for receiving updates from his support helicopter. This ultimately put him in third place overall, but hype and controversy aside, there was no doubt that Robby and his new Trick Truck were blazingly fast. Among those who witnessed, there was much talk about his new gearbox set up. Some even called it a game changer
Albins ST6 Series gearboxes are built upon a 6-speed sequential base that includes an efficient drop gear set for fast and simple ratio changes. In an effort to reduce drag, the ST6-I features roller-bearings and straight-cut, profile-ground gears that are shot peened and isotropic polished. Inspection ports make routine inspection easy without disassembly. The Albins ST6-i with torque converter is a rock solid, highly efficient alternative to the standard 3-speed automatic trans currently used in most Trophy Trucks.
