You sure it's not just the clutch that has gone? It can give the same simptoms as a broken box if it shears rather than just gets worn away. Used to happen on FWD grass track cars using cheap friction plates doing first gear 3000rpm dump clutch starts.

its defiantly the gearbox, tryed the starting it in gear thing and no joy, tis making a horrible grinding noise in every gear, sounds like someones gargling on nails! just typical, when you spend all your money on roadster parts (suspension arms) then gearbox goes
Cheers

change of plan... started taking the damn thing appart today and found its not the gearbox after all, the cv joint is rubber ducked! the cage holding the bearings in has sheared and chewed up the stub axle!
makes things a damn site easier, didnt really fancy taking the gearbox out on my back!
