Running a 10.5 motor in xb4 2wd

Using the kit spur what pinion should I try?

Outdoor track with a long straight.

Wow that's a very 'light' motor, I run 22 with a 6.5 so start with a 29 I guess

We are having a 10.5 series at Southport. Maybe a fun change from the 6.5 sprints down the straight.

Is it blinky only?

If not, a boosted 10.5 can actually be pretty rapid. Given the right gearing.
I ran one for a while in a 210, was only losing something like 1m on a 20 ish metre straight, against guys running 7.5/6.5 (unboosted).
Only guy I couldn't even come close to was running a 5.5.
But then, no one else keeps up with him either.
