Depending on which switch (or series of switches) I went through all the gears as well as locking up the converter. Even went for a test drive.
So, yes it can be done.
Hassle? Yeah, a bank of 4 switches that you toggle through going down the track?...that would be interesting to say the least in competition!
You'd probably have to throw some relays into the mix, too.
Doesn't sound impossible though.
