The current 2sp jumps around between 1st and 2nd sometimes in sweeper style corners and it doesn't stay in 2nd when it should do which is the same issue we had with the 977 gearbox. The evo gearbox is so much better and will be on the GT. I think we will also see certain current required upgrades standard in the kit including the 0 degree caster blocks and centre diff brackets in Alu. I don't think you'll see pro brakes as standard though. Think what they did with the cobra buggy that ended up having the Alu 14 degree caster blocks as standard etc...
