What is the diameter of the foam tires, i can figure out the roll out or just use this formula: I have found that a second gear roll out around 1.51 is really good

The old standard oneway bearing is not very good, the new kits come with an extra HD unit and i sell them as well. I went through the entire season last year with one bearing, I have found that kyosho ball dif grease works the best.
Thanks Marcus,
The tyre diameter of new foam tyre is 100mm
But after 30 minutes it is down to 90mm diameter and down to as small as 84mm (rim size is 79)
I think the best thing we can do is run the team c straight cut gears (13/43)on the diffs and then run 16/48 first and 20/46 for second.
