Question 2 speed transmission

I watched a you tube vid on a wraith with a 2 speed transmission. It looks very cool. I was wondering what those of you who have one think of it: performance, durability, etc

There's a lit of good info on here about them. Do a quick search. Although there is no need for 1 if you have a good brushless motor. I have the pro4 3300kv and with a single speed it will go faster than I need it to.

I have 1 on my wraith, and if there is any advice you should listen to, GET THE HD OUTPUT SHAFT!
That said, I love this transmission. As crawler nut said, it's kinda overkill with a good brushless motor but I however, have a need for speed mentality. Maybe it stems from my 1/8 on road racing years ago? I am running a pro4 4600kv with 12t pinion and 60t spur. It's stupid fast but also crawls great.

I'm planning on running the brushed Holmeshobby set that Harley recommends (35T torquemaster and BRXL ESC). I don't see myself doing any comps(yet) and thought a two speed tranny would give me the ability to crawl and bash with one vehicle.

I guess this is an alternative to building two different trucks. Maybe I've been going about this wrong. ��
