I'm at 3.7 at the moment using 64p 92/47 and I am at the limit in terms of fitting a bigger pinion.

Should I be switching to 48P?

After my first run, I had 3 people come up to me saying they now plan on buying the T4 and one guy straight up went in and bought one off the shelf after seeing the possibilities. If anyone is thinking that our track record doesn't mean anything, I shall point out that this is against a multi-national champion, snowbirds winner, and Vegas Tq modified driver. Car is legit, and has made our fairly low traction track seem easy to drive and honestly has made racing fun again for myself.

If anyone has any questions about the car, I can sure answer them or find someone that does. Just pm me.

It's great to see you excited about racing again as it seemed you wee losing the fun over the past few months. I love my car even though I had a bad day with it yesterday. I forgot my bodies that were fit and cut for my T4 so I had to hack up a T3 body and didnt seem to work too well. It would be awesome if one day you could take a look at my car and give some setup tips.

I got my Nikitas in yesterday, my T4 will be here tomorrow. A new ESC, body and springs coming wednesday. Diggity Design brace ships tomorrow. I'm too excited to sleep!

I tried a 52 but it was rubbing against the belt if I gave it enough room to clear the button screws.

I'm not sure how wide the Xray narrow pinions are to know they would clear for sure.

What brand pinions are you guys using who have gotten 50 & 52 to fit?
