I am running a 22 SCT so pretty close.

- Gearing, 76/28
- Orion R10.1 Pro Blinky
- Trinity D3.5 M. 12.5 Broadband Rotor. Can set to 10 degrees adv
- RevTech Shorty battery, 100C/4900MaH
- Slipper locked (or pretty close)
- Diff tight
- MIP Pucks complete system (Diff, outdrives and Dogbones)

I go between 27 and 29 on the gearing based on traction and outside temps. Comes off around 140 always. No Drag brake in the ESC. This setup is very good. There is not a single truck that can pull me on the straight or in the infield. Keep in mind that the motor plays a big piece of the setup. This setup is not ROAR legal but fine for club racing. You will need to play around with gearing as others said based on the Orion VST.

BTW, I do not understand why people wont share stock setups. This is more of a driver class than anything else.

Good luck..
