I'm running a Fantom FR-1 R type 17.5 with 42* on the can, 88 spur, 36 pinion. I have the battery transverse and back. All is stock out of the box except I've put Associated .018 springs up front. Driving wise I can put it where I want it, but it's lacking a little punch and top end. Not sure if I should back off a little timing and go up on pinion or just go up on timing a couple degrees at a time. It's really good, just not great.

Any suggestions for timing and gearing would be appreciated!
