I do not know personally but will be interesting to hear how yours works out with the 2-speed.

If you have the room I would think a 2-speed on a larger 1/7th scale would be fun. How do these things shift? Do they use some type of centrifugal clutch mechanism that switches out at a certain RPM?
The dude who started this post was using a 2 speed, but he din't reply as of yet. One certain benefit would be torque curve, if you could keep it hooked up.
