So just for fun I built my own Final Drive. Basically I ripped the clutch out of a Yoyo brain and did some mod work on the bearing. In the pic below you can see the bearing at the top left, the clutch at the top and a ground-down Claw platform to mount the track (it was broken anyway).
The bearing was inserted into the clutch and fastened. Then the platform was super-glued to the bearing-mount (so that the track could use different metal/clear wheels). Obviously the tip is part of the track and is made from the ground-down Yoyo bearing bolt.
Solo spin time with a good wheel is around 2mins, give or take 15secs. Good defense track but only because of its MASSIVE size protecting the metal wheel with pretty much zero recoil. The final drive behaviour (which was pretty good) otherwise did nothing to help the bey - still interesting to watch though.

As you can see in the pic, I built an attack tip out of a fuel valve to deal with the homemade FD's awesome defense. The idea was a VERY tall attack track which would contact the FD's metal wheel. You can see the result at the bottom of the pic. The FD literally exploded. You can see how only one of the FD weights is left - I still haven't found the other one.
Lesson to bey modders - never use glue, stay with bolts.
