No transmissions and no chain drives. By defination a midget is direct drive with a rear end gear. Some very old timers will argue that a long time ago some midgets were chain driven, those days are gone.
No claimers and no spec engines. Innovation can reduce the cost of these motors...

Why is it that the definition of a midget is direct drive with a rear end gear...do you think chains are crude? Midget because of engine cost has all but put them out of business. Why is it that Micro racing and Lightning Sprint racing is on a surge? Clearly it is engine cost...Look over in Aus. how they have revived the midgets...STOCK MOTORS cut the cost. Every person in the stands could careless if the midget is chain driven or gear driven. what they do care about is the racing and the care count. infact with the chain drives being self starting is a plus
