So, I've got a 59T TiNi Spur I can use. And my buddy says that I'll need a 26T pinion to get the mesh right if using the Dude mount. But I'll be running on 6s. He said he thought that set up was a bit too fast for bashing, so he went up to a 63T plastic spur. But he also swapped out the bevel gears in his LST2 and put the XXL gears in, which also made it faster.

According to the speed calc, if I go with the 59T spur, I'll need an 18-20T pinion to get in the 40-45mph range on 6s. But if the Dude mount won't allow the gears to mesh, I'll have to jump up to a 63T spur and use a 20T pinion. Hopefully that will mesh ok. My friend Tim modded his Dude mount to allow for better meshing.

Looks like most of my batteries will fit in the 45x168mm tray, but then again, they may also fit in the 48x145mm tray. What do you guys tend to use? The RCM trays are nice, but salty!
