Maxx Single speed Conversion?
I went to my hobbytown usa today and seen a single speed conversion kit for the maxx.
I was wondering if anyone has one and how they like it,they say its between first and 2nd gear speed wise but you just get there faster?
Also do you lose reverse,,or just 2nd gear?

RE: Maxx Single speed Conversion?
no you don't loose reverse when you go to a single speed, unless you do a foward only at the same time. if your looking to race your truck, and the track you plan to race on is fairly tight, with short straights, this is a conversion that you should consider. you will drastically reduse the rotoating mass in your trans severly improving you exceleration. top speed will be effected, but i've personally never hit 45 mph on the track anyway. the foc (forward only) does the same thing, plus ost tracks requier reverse to be locked out (in accordance with ROAR rules). you will however miss the "rush" of hearing it shift into second gear.
