No prob. Don't be surprised you go up more in gearing.
A good rule I used back in the day when 1/8 electric started and still do is to gear to top out towards the end of the longest straight. from there, adjust your gearing based on temps and track feel. Got the general idea from the late Big Jim.
Don't be surprised you go up a lot.
