I doubt that traxxas will do a 2 speed setup in an ejato. Plus if they retained the current tranny it would be a mid motor setup. And even a race prepped .12 does not have half the low end torque that a decent brushless setup does. I ran a 7s feigao 540 and 3s and the jato just could not handle the power. I could not imagine a 1512 jato, plus the tranny would be toast with decent grippy tires.

Work because i gotta, play because i wanna
People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
