Default Terra Crusher Gearbox

I was talking to a local agent today and he told me that the Terra Crusher gearbox is proving to be unreliable when changing from forward into reverse.
Does anyone know about this or had any trouble with their gearbox.
Also if you upgrade to a BB how does the gearbox handle it.
What top speeds will a BB provide, two of my friends have Mad forces and i dont want to be outrun by too much!!!!

Cheers

I have the Epic.18 in mine and haven't had any problems with the FRAT.

The FRAT takes a while to "wear in", took about a gallon before the FRAT would actually show its full potential. What sucks is that the truck has to move forward for the reverse to kick in, not great if you're against a board on the track or against a curb. I haven't persoanlly had any problems myself, though I hear the forward only conversion kit helps.
