What Pinion?
 

i have a Losi 22 with a 76t spur. i have now got a 10.5t motor ane wanted to know what size pinion to use..

thanks.

Page 33 of the manual says 24. :)

Depends what track length and if its tight/open, surface, weather, tyres, temperature, how fast you want to go etc etc... also depends on speedo settings.

For that wind get 23T, 24T and 25T pinions and you should be good for most circumstances... I use 22/23 on a 8.5T with mild boost, 21/22 on 6.5T with lower boost

Sometimes it is advised to use the manual suggestions loosely on gearing as the advice will be based on running on Clay/Dirt tracks and higher ambient temperatures so on some cars it can be way out to gearing for higher bite UK tracks

As a wise man once said, "If all else fails, read the f-ing manual."

a wise man once told me " Never believe it just because it is written"

lol... i know whats in the manual but that is a base stock setting, wanted to know what others were running with that combo.....

another wise man told me

"Its good to know the ways of our adversaries" :p:p:lol::lol:

:lol::woot::rolleyes:
TLR wouldn't have written it if it wasn't correct - and that's the whole point of a "base stock setting," to get you in the ballpark and then you adjust from there based on the track you're running (just like everybody else does).

And that's why you ask at the track, of your adversaries - and not somebody else's. ;)

Has anybody already tried to get the motor as far back as possible in a mid motor buy using a smaller spur gear?

Witch spur/pinion motor combo did you use?

so then what you are saying is the only ones that can really advise and help me are my fellow club mates ! Then maybe you should of kept your f-ing un helpfull comments to your self then.....:thumbdown:!

Good question, I was thinking about that recently. Sadly, I am doing the opposite really... I have a 78 tooth spur :-/

Then again, I really don't know if 1 or 2 mm would really make much of a difference.
