1st gear spur gear: 43T plastic spur

2 gear spur gear: 39T plastic spur

With the os 18 your going to have plenty acceleration. I would give it higher gearing a bit so you dont get too much acceleration and will get more top-speed....but be careful if you run in parkinglots and stuff your car is going to be hitting things a bit harder...therefore breaking more stuff.

TZ blows it away in all aspecs and is a newer more race breed design. Its probably the strongest .18 you can find.

CV-R is good solid , easy to tune yet still powerful but no where near the speed of the TZ series.
