You should find a whole shed load of useful info & ideas in that thread, and Dafni is still active, just a bit quiet, lol.

Wow. This is going to be fun. Why just 100mph . The 44T plastic spur+1527/1D= Melted plastic . Are you only going to do speed runs? Do you plan on having this nice crazy powerful set up for normal running? Just make sure your drive train is up for it . I would go hard steel on the spur and pinion.

thanks Neil, that threads exactly what i'm looking for

@Lutach: I'm not actually planning to hit 100mph, i just thought if i geared it that high it would run really efficient, and hopefully tame down a little torque. The melted plastic is what im afraid of, do you know anywhere i can get a steel 44t mod1 spur? i have been looking.

I'm not to worried about my drivetrain at the moment, HB Lightning CD, hardened steel dogbones, UE 8 Spider diffs, UE steel 8mm cvds. I think this setup will put them to the test

thanks
