However if you are a consistant racer, smooth on throttle, and just like to go fast then this is for you. If you are anything less than the above and very hard on throttle then I would run milder motor.
Even a 10.5 on small carpet track is very fast. Good luck and let me know if you need anything else.
Ps: gear 4.5 light at 19/96 1.73 rear tire.
gear 4.5 standard 18/96 1.73 rear
Thank you all for the tips. I do enjoy faster motors in my Gen X and I just have to fiddle with it to get to more of a brushed feel.
Thanks,
