With the CO27 motors we all run high 7's for a final drive on a very small parking lot track. With the 04mod gears, it's a 30/29T pinion and a 105T spur. Just look inside your manual to find what pinion you need in the 7.8 range and adjust from there.

I don't like the motor over 140* at the comm after a race (120-130 is better), so gear up or down depending. You definitely want to be topped out a bit before the braking point of the longest straight.

I just changed to cheap Orion 2400mah lipo, and it really brought my team-express CO27 to life. More power than I can handle right now...
