Suitable motor advice

[B4 Sloth]

Hey,

I am currently running a peak 13 double bought new off e bay. Has adjustable timing. Not as fast as i thought. Will advancing motor a bit make much difference. I am running a 21t pinion, my local shop did not have the 22 that the manual recomends. Would a 23t make much difference. Am i better off looking for a bargain on e bay...such as the Peak suritan 12 x2. Or a 12 single. Whats best to do?

I'd say your under geared by about 4 teeth, possibly more.

Do you race or bash? Unless it's a tiny indoor track I agree with Ian, gear up! I used to run a 10 turn motor on that gearing, sometimes more, so 3 - 4 teeth is sensible even for track racing.
