I want to thank everyone who gave me input on the truggy gearing project I was doing. I have to say that the RC8 can no longer out run the ol mugen now. With the truggy ring and pinion front anf rear and a 44t center diff gear, it totally rocks with an 17t cb. I still have an incredible amount of torque so I think i'm going to push it a little more and go to an 18t cb. I'm running a Novarossi p5x with about 7 gallons on it and runs strong. I might try a Go .21 3 port race engine. Or get my p5x repinched and modded, haven't decided on that yet.
Thanks all,
Chuck
