I have not tried such short gear on the RM-01 so you may have to experiment to see what fits ?

I would recommend you have very true tires with that much rpm
Jaco Pink Rr, Purple Fr perhaps ?

Tamiya kit tires are very good for stock racing
Tamiya Hop-Up tires have more grip than kit tires

Please post results with this experiment
i"ll let you know how its goes...

by the way is there any information how to setup 1:12...
i have read some information from this forum but most of them just inform you to use this or that but do not explain clearly what the function really are...

for example: change the oil in pitch damper lighter or heavier... or change the spring infront stiffer or softer... but did not explain if you change the spring stiffer it will make the car react more or less to steering input...

the reason i ask this question is that i do not want to setup my car according to someone else setup which i believe their setup up must be different from my tack...so i want to be able to correct the car quicker by understanding how to fix the problem quicker...

Thanks Guys....
