The trannies are 2 speed with approxiamte speeds (70% of free speed) at 3.4 ft/sec and 9.5 ft/sec. Kinda slow compared to other designs but This is designed like a bulldozer.
Great design looks good and rugged. One quick tip, If your gonna use a track like brecoflex, which has alot of grip add in a center idler wheel which is larger than your drive wheel. It will aid in turning your machine. We used brecoflex this past year and without the larger idler our machine couldn't turn. This thread might also help you:
