I know that when we go from standard 2.2 buggy tires to 2.0 custom works street tracs we can gear up 4 teeth on the pinion to give us about the same performance. My 13.5 is really fast for what it is, but as a racer I always want to make the car faster. My motor comes off at about 135 and I am not affraid to run it up to 160-170 if the performance gains are worth it. Can sombody help me out here?
If anyone uses an iphone, the app is called "Gear it". Its perfect for what you are looking for !
