Status: offline 		Thanks for the info... How will single speed compare to 2 speed as far as acceleration, and top speed?? Also can I use the same housing or do I need to order a different one?

Status: online 		http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h_a81f55z0 thats my Exceed 1/10 Nitro Extreme Forza with a single speed conversion on it. it is way fast. the tires break loose on accelleration on gravel and its fast bro.
that is the whole gear set and brake unit. just take the 2 speed out and put that one in. you will be happy with it. i am.

Status: offline 		OK guys... I think I'm going to be a "single speed convert". I am going to miss the way the buggy sounds when it shifts to 2nd. But eventhough I enjoy taking the buggy apart and putting her back together, doing so almost every time I take her out gets to be a little too much!!! Someone out there needs to come out with a much better 2 speed design. Until then.... single speed it is....

Thanks again guys...
Anthony
