A buddy hear in Vegas runs a fast modded on road .21 in his GT2, however he also has a Mugen 1/8 2 speed tranny modded in the car to handle it, car looks awsome on the track and takes off and seems to run forever and didn't hit the motors high rpm peak but man it gets on your butt in hurry on the track straight away.

So yes you can, but you gotta upgrade the 2 speed to the 1/8 scale evolva type 2 speed. Check out winners circle hobbies or brooklyn Hobbies they sell a evolva 2 speed kit from ipanema racing, well worth it if you plan to bash on the road or race on a track.
I am leaving on Vacation Saturday afternoon. I have 1 Ipanema Black Hawk transmission left. Who wants it?
