I've done a search and can't find anything useful at this point, so I'll ask:

What would be a good starting point for gearing if I'm running a 21.5 lipo setup for my CRC Gen-X 10?

Looking at the Novak site and comparing 1/12 to 1/10 and 17.5 to 21.5. I'd guess I should be very very confused. For VTA we have the 4.2 ceiling and there is really nothing else to compare it with. The motor should be able to handle mid 3s to mid 4s, but somehow come up with numbers in the low 2s trying to get a 83 mm rollout.

I'm so lost.

I'll have to double check this (spur size), but I believe I'm running a 75T spur and I know pinion is 32T (48P). Tires are 2.180 dia. and rollout is close to 3.0 or 74mm.

Running speed pasion 21.5, on med sized carpet track. I'm close to speed of 13.5 4 cell with a little lacking low end power. temps 140-150 range after 5-6 min.

Thanks for the quick response Vern. Now I can at least practice from square one instead of hunting for it.

64 p, 92/40 (or 110/48 if it fits), FDR of 2.3, rollout 2.98 inches/75.59 mm

hey guys,

would a shorter or longer wheelbase give more rear grip on the gen10?
and would a wider or shorter width Track give more rear grip?

Special thank to Verndog! Absolute Pure Speed. 100/43 @ 2.97" rollout was perfect. Even without a body this thing was hanging with the oval cars Saturday morning. I get to run with a C6R body tonight on the road course, time permitting. I was running the CRC WGT Lilac control tires, out of the box, uncut with Jack on the back tires only and they worked perfectly. The front was nailed down and didn't need compound.

Does anyone know when Calandra will post a blank setup sheet for the GenX-10 on their website? Or when they will post a baseline setup?

In the meantime, has anyone created a template to use as a setup sheet?

Thanks.

Here is a blank one from one of the Japanese Team CRC members.

Excellent...its a fun class for sure. I was surprised once I hit the gearing, new Trinity 35c 3800 lipo, and speed passion 21.5, I am able to hang with the 13.5 4 cells very well. The Orion 3600 25c wasn't quite as competitive.

You'll want to cut those tires down to max dia. of 2.2 for sure (they come at 2.380). It makes a very big difference.

Copied from another Thread:

Torque steer is not my friend. I ran my CRC geared at 100/40 with a 21.5/lipo and could not get rid of it. Half way down the back stretch I try to ease into more throttle and the rear end kicks to the right every single time anywhere from half to full throttle. I'm running the spec CRC tires. I'm thinking I have to go a lot smaller on the pinion and larger on the spur just to make it driveable. Is my thinking wrong? Rollout is around 2.76" at present. I did manage to break a steering block while I was at it. Spares on the way...

Thanks for the heads up Vern.

I tried running the tire size he ran but I can't keep the rearend under the car after the 3.5min mark. I think they got away with that small of tire because the traction is so high in cleveland. None the less it is a pretty damn good set up and I thank him for posting it for us all.

Hey buddy need help getting at least three more peeps to get a class going for pro 10 at Crystal Park. New layout, great traction when sprayed with DHT. Are you coming back to L.A. this year? I'm still here and fine tuning my my car and driving skills. Still need work but I think I got past the newbie stage and have a little bit of knowledge I have aquired over the year.

Now this goes out to anyone else in the Los Angeles area that might be interested in Pro 10 class 3 more makes a class and great big track for 3.5 with the Protoform p905.

Hi guys,

I´ve just got a GenX10 in order to hit my huge local asphalt track. I´m planning to start with brushless 8,5t 2s lipo pack. I´ve never race 10th scale pancars and I´ve no clue in the ratio side. I even doubt the pinion to start with (std 110 spur). By the way I guess will be better to use 48 pitch spur on the asphalt, ain´t it?
Any help quite apreciated

A picture of my ride. Later I soldered the motor wires by the backside of the tab and I gotta sort the lenght of the esc battery wires.
