I just got into RC a few months back with an SC10, and yesterday, I received my first foray into the buggy world with the B5.
One thing I can't seem to figure out is gearing.
How does smaller pinion / smaller spur differ from larger pinion / larger spur?
For example, According to a chart I found a 25/75 will have the same exact ratio as a 29/87. So what benefit would the 25/75 have over the 29/87?
Does it just have to do with rotating mass?
Edit: Nevermind. After some quick googling I found some threads here that answered my question. The answer is really nothing. If the gear ratio is the same, then there is no difference.
I can't wait to race the buggy for the first time tomorrow.

We're getting there. I must say I like the DE wheels for something different.

Hello,
Does somebody have or can measure the weight distribution of their B5 Front/Rear ? Either in grams or % ?
Trying to see how close or far the B5m is.
Thank you
Jonathan
Ps: Or if anybody can give me some search words for it as I couldn't find the info.

I'm going back to white wheels because 85% of the B5s at my track are running the green DE wheels. Too bad my Tamiya wheels aren't hex, mmmm Pink.

Anybody know if there is a titanium thrust screw made? Snapped one this weekend, first time but thought would be cool to have titanium. The only screw in the kit that is not metric too, 2mm would be nice. Also the front hinge pin holder screws and hinge pin retaining screws, these little screws in titanium; I know it's excess but thought somebody might have an outlet. 2mm would be nice here too, those 1.5mm are touchy.
Anybody know how long ceramic bearings should last in diff and wheels?
