The only transmission solution for the Kyosho cars is the 2 shoe type. I tried every option on the finger type transmission and I either stripped the plastic gear, broke the metal gear, tore the pin out of the gear, or broke the finger.

I am running a Blackhawk transmission in my GT2 (made from Evolva parts) and I never have a problem with it. This allows the use of 44 or 45 gears for 2nd gear and 47, 48 or 49T for 1st gear. Unfortunately the Blackhawk is no longer available but you can still build your own Evolva based GT transmission if you are unhappy with the new Kyosho shoe transmission.
