i hear a lot of people say they like the 2 speed at least for gettign between obstacles on the trail?

I am picking one up this afternoon at a local hobby shop. They are selling it at $265. I think I will give the local shop the business even though it's $15 more.

If the individual item isn’t tagged with the “no coupons” marking, Amain’s system will apply the coupon and let you check out. I’ve done it with Axial kits and a few other things before they get around to updating the settings to disallow coupons.

You thieves stealing money from poor AMain and Traxxas! :ror:

I'm freaking jealous I didn't know about this. I wonder if AMain will have any repercussions from Traxxas.

Same here, with coupon.

Argh! So sad I pre-ordered before the coupon code.

Oh well... It's worth full price anyway. [emoji2369]

Nice! Mine's already on the way from Amain, or else I would go there to pick one up if they had more.

Does anybody know the FDR of the Traxxas Sport as well as the FDRs of the two speed TRX-4 trucks? I can't seem to find that info.

FDR? Is that final drive ratio? sorry I don't know the answer. I have heard that its geared too fast. I've got the kit on the way and as well as a 45t Spur gear. ill probably drop down to a 10t pinion.

Stock spur is 39T
stock pinion is 17T

Yes, FDR = Final Drive Ratio.

I also read that the Sport is too fast so I want to get a different pinion and or spur gear before I build the kit.

Thanks for the pinion/spur info.

I looked at the manual for the Sport Kit and the Bronco and this is what I found:

Sport Kit
39/17 x 15.8 = 36.25

Bronco
High Gear
45/11 x 6.32 = 25.85

Low Gear
45/11 x 15.8 = 64.64
