Agree. keep to a smaller spur when using slower motors to reduce the pendulum effect of having the motor hanging out back. Ive just tried a 75t spur and 26t pinion on mine and it was ballistic. Helped along with 20 degree of boost and 10degree of turbo added in. This really helped to keep weight forward and give me the speed it needed.
It was actually much faster in my b4 than when i ran my 8.5t x12 in the x2c earlier in the day
i love that i can just drop the boost levels and leave the rest of the gearing alone for smaller tracks. Very driveable
