Cant imagine the mamba in the drifter
I want to ask something about gear ratio... Should I put bigger pinion and smaler spur to get more speed, or just the opposite? I guess this can be adjusted by trying, but its better to start from one point.

Thanks again!
i reccomend starting at 7.4fdr. if you want it to go faster, drop it by .1until you find a nice medium. but if your chassis has parts glued, i would strongly reccomend fixing those parts first. you will not get an acurate feel unless you do.

if you want it to whip around more, increase.

i personally use a FDR of 7.49 on a novak 8.5
