17.5,13.5 or 10.5 brushless. The pulleys are OK but I found the front belt to be a little long, there's no adjustment left once the tension is set. If it wasn't such a pain, I'd tear it down again and try a used (stretched) stock belt maybe. Overall though, it's alot easier to deal with the 2.16 ratio for brushless. I also run regularly on a smallish carpet track with foams.
I heard that the newer belts for the 18tooth pulley seem a bit too long. I'm mostly running mod some I don't need to run the lower gear ratio's but I may run 19turn every now and then and Hope I can hit the 5.2 ratio I like running the 10.5 at. Are people having problems with ratio's with the regular pulley?
