Can anybody tell me what gearing to use for a 2wd Slash with a 13.5t motor?

Thats to much gearing to start with. I run 19/86. I got enough speed and acceleration. It depends on your track and turns and jumps.

According to this i should use 27/86. Actually that was in line with what I was thinking.

I ran mine 25/86 on a smaller indoor track and it was plenty fast. After 7 minutes the motor starts to warm up pretty good though so if you go with a 27 keep checking your temps

Depending on track layout I use either 25 or 26 pinoin on the 86 tooth spur. Using a novac SS and MMP with conservative timing advance motor temps are about 140 after a 6 minute race.
