Default B44.1 Setup for Mikes

Just got a B44.1 and looking for a good starting setup for mikes. I have a Tekin 6.5 and 13.5 powered by a RS Pro. Running Losi big bore springs (Silver front, Yellow rear). Other than that it is stock suspension.

What I'm looking for is what weight shock oil you guys are running, diff fluid weight and motor gearing. I'm leaning towards putting the 13.5 in because I'm used to my 17.5 SCT and 6.5 will most likely have to be dialed way down.

If you download Steve Hartsons setup from the JConcepts Spring Nationals you'll be very close. Most 4wd setup don't vary as much from track to track. Mine differs a little, I run Avid Purple springs up front and White rears with no Ballist weight, and I run all my camber links in the long position.
