Check this out, also read the manual...it has gearing recommendations in the back. You will need to be up around the 72/32 range...maybe another tooth or two on the pinion. Also make sure you do a quick search before posting threads...

What are other AE guys running at your track? You cant be the only b4. I would assume
Something around 30-33/75 would be a good place to start.
