Man, this thing was FAST (no GPS or radar to verify)!!! I'm sure the damp road conditions didn't help.
If you go with the 2 speed, make sure you have really sticky tires. It might help to keep the difference in ratio closer together so there isn't such a drastic change in rpm/torque when it shifts.

Thank's for chiming in brian . If thats the case maybe i'll just get a single speed car. It's looking like the ofna gtp is the leading canadit . since my friends kyosho has a 2 speed that i would have to lock in gear . I can get a really good price on the gtp . Do you agree with the MEDUSA motor recomended eairler in this thread . This would be run on 4s .
60 - 2000kv should be good...
