That's kind of what I wanted to hear from someone who's seen the same issue. I was almost starting to think that EVERYONE knew this and did it except for me!

I was geared at around 4.3 for it to get "some" speed. So I'm assuming that's totally wrong now? I see "Big Brother" is using a 5.25 FDR for V3 13.5 Is that what everyone else is running at?
