Regarding pinions, I've been running 18t on the 1900kv motors on 4s everywhere. I've seen folks like Lutz also run 19t on tracks like DNC. It is more about throttle feel than the straight in most cases. On that same DNC track last year there were also successful team drivers running 17t pinions on the 1900kv motors because it made several of the jumps a lot easier for them to hit at the right speeds (to not overdo it). All 3 should work out fine for you, though 18t is where I would suggest starting with either the 1900 or the 2050 in the EB, and then go up if the track layout is flowing and temps are good, or you find it easier to handle the throttle that way.

Anyone know offhand if you have to remove any of the chassis screws to remove the diffs in the EB?

What can I do other than different tires, can I do to make my buggy have more traction and control because it drifts sometimes.

I'm running it stock straight out of the box.

Wanna say thanks tekno for giving me the opportunity to run for them in 2016. Just got my eb4.3 last week and got it built. Build went awesome. Drive train is super free. Motorama next week will be my first race with the car. Running the tekin rx8 gen 2 and 1900 motor. Question what is a good starting point for gearing? Also how is the car out of the box? Any think needed out of the box right away as far as hopups?

Go with Joe bronhorst wicked weekend setup. It makes the car so much easier to drive consistently and locks the rear without taking away that super fast turning ability... At least that's what I felt when I tried it yesterday

Putting one of these together for this coming summers outdoor season, great build as usual so far. Picked up the Tekno multitool, very nice tool and I really like the part for putting in the ball ends and taking them out.....sweet! Anyone running the SMC 1900KV? Decided to try one and heard it likes a touch less gear, maybe start with 17-18?

I use the SMC 1900. Great motor, lots of power but it runs warm. Running outdoors on a medium size track, it'll hit 175 or 180 degrees after 12 - 15 minutes if the ambient temp is 85. Was previously using a 17 or 18 tooth pinion figuring that would help it run cooler. At the advice of folks on this board, I went to a 19 tooth pinion and found it didn't run any hotter but definitely performed better. Plenty of low power and top end.
