Thanks for the info EMU.
I am OK with sticking with this gearing. I am curious how the FWD will fair against the RWD, I would think that the RW
D driveline would be more efficient.
Cheers,

RWD is more efficient because it doesn't use the idler gear (internal spur/pinion), but at this gearing you are close to riding the RPM limit most of the time so it should be close to the same speed. Allowing higher gear ratios would swing the favor towards RWD further. I think you chose an excellent ratio for rwd/fwd/awd to race with good parity.
