Default RE: What to get....?

Ok thanks for all the help guys, i guess im looking at either the redcat monsoon, the redcat avalanche or the monster GT.
I wont be racing, just playing around with buddies.....bit of bashing.
What i dont understand though is the monsoon has a gear ratio of 17.5:1, the avalanche has a gear ratio of 17.7:1........but on the team associated website it said the Monster GT has a 2-speed gear box with an "internal gear ratio" of 3.31:1.
Thats a huge difference of gear ratio. Why is this, does it have something to do with the fact that its a 2-speed gearbox???....I dont quite understand.
Can someone please explain?

Thanks a lot, Daniel
