12-18-2011 - 2 Speed Updates.
We have received and inspected the final prototype and everything is good to go. We will be starting production on the units next week.
We are using several production facilities for each part type and each one has a different production loads at this time of the
year. I will put out an update sometime next week on when we will have all the retail parts in for shipment.

11-5-2011 - 2 Speed Updates.
The 2 Speed testing is complete and we are awaiting a last sample batch for final inspection. This should be here within a week and then if everything fits good we will
be approving the order and start production. In the meantime I've added a 2 Speed gearing selector which will allow you to compare your stock gearing to the 2 Speed gearing.
This will give you a good idea which 2 Speed gears to run with.
9-19-2011 - 2 Speed Updates.
I just added a Video section in the main navigation bar and uploaded a video of the MCD 2 Speed in action. I'll be adding Rampage 2 Speed videos soon. Keep an eye out for those.
9-11-2011 - 2 Speed Final testing is under way.
We have received our latest revisions on parts and have testing all weekend. For the past year we've been testing the system strickly in our MCD Evo4 RR and Cheetah.
I just recently installed the Rampage unit in my 21 lb. XB running my TS/ESP reed 30.5 and all I can say is WOW! I haven't had this much fun for a long time.

Unfortunetely, we had a electronics failure in the MCD due to a faulty RX and the Rampage stripped a wheel hex which killed any video we were about to take. We should have some
HD video taken of both units running here very shortly.
7-27-2011 - Where we currently are.
We are currently awaiting a new material change to the steel used in the 2 speed gears. We expect the parts in within a week and will put many more hours
on the new material to make sure it will hold up to rough running conditions. The Competition Belt Drive is waiting on the finish of the 2 speed since it will
be using the same gear plate. We will be testing more during the next month and will make another update on the progress late August or early September.
3-31-2011 - Where we currently are.
Alot has happened over the winter and spring. First, we have put a hold on testing the multispeed transmissions untill after the single speed is released.
This is not because of any doubts in the design. We have spent too many dollars and hours on it which has delayed release of the single speed belt drive.
The single speed belt drive is getting another face lift. After almost a year of testing we are going to make one last major change. We are widening out the belt by 25% to account for the
torque of high power engines like the new ONB twin motor and a TS 30.5cc. We are not going to bother testing a BZM as we have no doubts about it holding up to that particular motor.
The revisions will mean that we have to order a complete new stock of belts, pulleys, revised the clutchbell length, revise the layshaft length, and space the gearplate clutchbell bearings
further apart to account for the extra leverage put onto the clutchbell shaft. This will take some time unfortunately but be assured that you WILL NOT get a product that was
designed, tested, and slapped into the market overnight.
