According to the spec sheet this thing is a clutch-type transmission. So, you'll need a way to both engage/disengage the clutch AND shift the gears. That's kinda awkward and complex... However, it would allow you to shift gears at a standstill.

Its also non-reversing, whatever that means. (non backdrivable? or can it only turn one way?)

Not the best tranny for FRC. But if I ever build a go-kart I'll look into these things
