I dont like changing the gearing from stock unless I didnt like it from the start and for me to go up on the bell im not shure if it would work because my local track has short run ups to large triples. I also like the smaller venturi because of more runtime. I would like o try a combo of alum and composite shoes but when i tried it before it just tore up the composite shoe and the 2 alum shoes in 1, 5 min qualifier. That was what was recommended to me by engine modder. But the all composite does slip a bit but it calms the mill down I am thinking about trying a Werks 4 shoe composite, lots of guys I know swear by them. 22 what brand and how much? Also Grizz I have some questions about the VP tires.
