I'm sure a fast gear set would give you more options with the 13.5 but like I said earlier, I think it is too much power and not worth exploring. The fast gear set is also more fragile than the standard Tamiya gears.
I'll report back with my findings after tomorrow night! I'll be running Sweep 33 slicks on the front with additive
