It's a bit too fast for racing right now so I want to get an 18t pinion, but even if it was in stock it wouldn't be here in time for racing on Friday.
A 16t might give me ok speed for racing, but I'd prefer not to have to grind the fins. I might have to go looking for a 65t spur to use with the 20t pinion, which should give me ~35mph, which is a good speed for my track, but I'm not sure if that will fit the motor plate. I will have to modify the motor plate, but even then...
OR... I could use a 24t pinion and use it in first gear, but I don't have one, and they're not in stock.
OR... I could get some 1/8 diffs and lower the ratio that way, but that will be expensive.
All of those options should give me ok speed for racing (mid to high 30's), but at the moment I don't have parts for any of them :031:
