Default Mini-T Brushless Gearing with 2.2s?

I got a mini-t with 2.2" rears and a Mamba Micro Pro 5400. Just curious what you guys would use as far as gearing goes. I dont want to burn out the motor or esc so just curious what you think. Thanks

I run 10/60 to 15/60.
10/60 with a 3s lipo on a small dirt oval track is a hot setup.
15/60 with a 2s lipo is not as fast but is easy to control out of the corners. ( dose not spin out as much )
Track size and motor temperature should determine gearing.

For bashing I run 15/60 on 2s lipo with my 5400kv, I really like that setup. I've run down to 12/60 but for the bmx track I jump on sometimes I need the extra speed of 15/60 since the jumps are bigger.

I can wheelie with my mini-dt, but more often than not I can't because there isn't enough traction for the torque I have, plus the longer wheelbase helps keep the nose down which I like.
