huh how in the world can it have 2 clutches? Also what in the world would be the point of 2 clutches?
It will have a clutch bell which also plays the part of a pinion due to the gear being built on it, and the spur will have a slipper. Reason it has a clutch is so the motor can spin up without engaging the spur to move the RC. If it didn't have a clutch you would have no idle, and if the RC stopped the engine would die(trust me I had clutch shoes fuze to a bell before).
Big recommendation(don't take it s an insult) before you think about a nitro read how they work first. Nitros can be incredible frustrating if you have 0 knowledge, and also some of the terminology changes like pinion is now clutch bell.
BTW looked at the pics of it this looks like a standard 2wd nitro. Well more to the point it looks exactly like all of traxxas's 2wd nitros the only thing about them that can be semi confusing from pics is how they have an electric motor attached to them to so you don't need to pull a pull starter, and a wire attached to the glow plug so you don't need to use a glow plug warmer.
