Hey guys, I am selling my two XXXS cars. I have two of those spur gear adapters to go with it and 4 belts (2 blue, one black HD and a custom belt). Here is the ad:

Maybe on a really tight track, it would be ok- but not ideal. You want to be able to drop into at least the mid-threes if possible.

Stoked the first run of Delrin adapters. Maybe I can recoup some of the money I spent on a NIP MF adapter Looking forward to it.

You'll need an adapter. Look to gear between the low-to-mid 3's, Maybe a bit higher depending on motor & layout. Go to gearchart.com if you need some help finding this range...play around with different spur gears / pinions to get what you need.

ok well after some research and final thought on this adaptor thing,im just going to run open class with this car.it does look silly with a 200mm body on it.190mm will just look better since the car is a 190mm car.bbbuuuttt now what fdr am i looking for for 9.5?i can reach 4.2 now.
