When the car is driving the CVD's dont seem to chatter on mine. Are you hearing/feeling it when actually racing it or just when holding it up and running the throttle while turning?

Hi Guys,
I have a question regarding the spur and pinon size on the tc6.1. I have mounted a silver can (Tamiya 540) motor and I faced the same problem of the bushing and the screws not lining up so added a stack of washers upto 5mm as spacers and I have installed the motor but I have a 72t 48p spur gear and I have 24, 25, 26t pinions and non of them touch the spur gear So I need to buy a bigger spur gear and around 3 pinions.
I am looking at the following spur pinion sizes :
Spur-pinion = drive ratio
81-31 = 5.22
81-30 = 5.40
81-29 = 5.58
81-28 = 5.78
87-33 = 5.27
87-32 = 5.43
87-31 = 5.61
87-30 = 5.8
What combination should I get, any suggestions ?
I am very new to racing and still learning to drive so I am looking at a 5.7 ratio to start with ...
Thanks.

EDIT: If you can't find the 81T 48P locally, anything down to about a 78 should still work.

According to the gear chart posted, 76/39 fits, and 76/40 doesn't. That puts the max tooth count at 115. Also, 80/22 fits, but 80/21 doesn't, putting the min tooth count at 102. That means none of the 87T combos will fit in the car, so you'll have to go with the 81T combos. Just get the spur for now, and I can loan you a few pinions to try and figure out what works, since I don't use the ones I have in that range. Then you can just by one and focus on driving.

tc6 front end shake/chatter
I set up my TC6 for VTA with the setup sheet in the back of the manual or kit setup. I copied it exactly even building the diff and shocks the recomended way. The only difference I can think of is that my shock caps are vented. The car was awesome!!

Just throwing this out there but since my LHS had no battery tape, we used a Losi 22 battery strap(velcro), cut the plastic end off the loop and slid the carbon fiber battery hold down piece through the loop.
Can someone verify it though? Don't take this to be gospel just yet, he had it in the back and said it was from a 22. From the pics the 22 strap looks too short. Spektrum makes long ones also(found on Amain)

Took the plunge and ordered the FT on sale at the AE site. Can't wait 
I think I'm only going to do a partial conversion to the WC, maybe use a different chassis, but at the very least I'm going to do the WC vertical ballstud caps and towers. I couldn't beat the $150 difference.
