Quaife launches heavy duty four-wheel drive transmission
Renowned performance transmission company, Quaife Engineering, will launch its QBE87G 4x4 sequential gearbox at Autosport International. Based on its highly successful QBE69G unit, the new transmission has been developed for all-wheel drive, high-powered motorsport
and fast road cars of up to 750bhp. Quaife’s state-of-the-
art sequential gearchange mechanism is incorporated, as well as an in-line transfer assembly with a choice of viscous coupling or Quaife ATB differentials. Seven different straight cut gear ratio sets or a helical gear set can be selected, with five different drop ratio sets also available, allowing the gearing to be tuned for a wide range of applications.

Cruden demonstrates new software upgrades
The world’s leading professional motion simulation company, Cruden, will demonstrate its new software updates during the show. Its new Set-Up Tool allows engineers to change vehicle settings, including shock absorbers, dampers, wing settings and throttle mapping, all while the simulator is in use. Meanwhile, its new Telemetry Analyser facilitates the evaluation of vehicle model performance and driving style while the simulator is running or after the session. Its instant feedback allows for the analysis of lap and sector times, speed, throttle, brakes, steering
angles and gears. Also added to Cruden’s offering is a GPS tracker, which allows onlookers to view a simulated lap or race while seeing driving position, lap times and ranking.
