Run the 100,000-300,000 up front and 1000 rear.
And take that silly battery brace off. That thing doesnt let the chassis flex equally from left to right.

It's not a brace, it's a handle that's how I carry my car. I'll remove it but I don't know how I will carry my car.

Is there any option parts to allow for bigger pinions? Here in the East Coast, 17.5 Stock (Blinky) is popular and I do not want to dremel or cut out any carbon fiber to make the gearing combo work.

I hope Horsham is still running open ESC's.

san - i'm running 95 spur with a 52 or 53 pinion, which gives me in the ballpark of 3.58 FDR...no issues whatsoever, other then just getting the pinion on but everything else meshes up nicely

sorry for the missing digit guys.... 96 Spur & 47 Pinion. No mods needed. I did not shave any parts to make it fit.
