As new in TC, I have a question.

If you need more top speed on the strait, how do you know whether to go up a tooth or more in gearing or to increase some of the timing options in the speedo?

My son runs a 418 in kit setup, FDR gearing in the 8 region (according to table in manual to the 6.5T LRP X20 motor fitted), LRP Flow speedo in default settings.

Well, how do you know how to gain more top speed, play with gearing, speedo timing settings or both?
