42 in the rear? I see where you are going with this, but the track is very aggressive/corse. I'll give it a try

When I built my kit, I just added a washer there to make it tighter.

i would like to use lightened steel pinion gear for the 1st gear (17T). is there any? who makes them and where can i order this part?
i understand aluminum is lighter and better for acceleration but i believe its easy to lose track of the pinion wear that eventually will strip the spur (which is what happened to me). lightened steel should be harder and should relieve me of this problem
