Default Getting Back Into 1/12th Racing - Need Some Advice

Hello all, after several years out of racing rc I'm getting back into it. My local hobby shop just moved to a great location that will serve well for indoor racing. I'm currently building up a TC6.2 and have a RC12R5.2 that I will be working on next after the sedan is sorted out. There is some 1/12th interest here locally and I'm hoping to help build more interest in it.

My main question is what would be a good starting point for a 64 pitch spur and pinion gearing set up? I'm planning on running a Speed Passion 17.5. The track will be quite large with a long straight section, a technical infield, and shorter straight.

My 2nd question is what steering servo should I look into? Are there any economical options these days that I should give a try?

I couldn't be more excited to get back into doing some racing. Thank you very much for any help that can be thrown my way.
