Which according to the manual will give somewhere around 6.7 final drive ratio. Would that be ok for wlrc because I'm obviously going to have to buy extra gears if not. Any advice would be great, cheers.
The tc5 is pretty decent from what I recall.

I'd consult the manufacturers' recommendations for the motor you're running, and use that as a start point.
