Default Schumacher SST spur options

Hi all,

I posted a while back about getting my SST up and running for racing. I did this and went racing! The car was great fun and I didn't come last despite never having raced ever. However I was losing huge amounts of time on the straight at adur (40-50m at a guess from google earth)

I was running the smallest spur that I had and the biggest pinion that would fit with that spur, 83:31. However, this is horribly undergeared (FDR 5.4)

The biggest pinion that I can find is 40T which means that if I could find a 65T spur I could fit it and that would give me an FDR of 3.25. However I have a couple of questions,

Would 3.25 FDR be ok for 17.5T no boost racing? And if so, does anyone know where I could buy such a spur?

Any help would be much appreciated,

Cheers,

Tim

Edit
Just found this. Maybe it would work?
