6.5 gearing

[samd]

What are people gearing a 6.5 on, indoor tracks like worksop. Im thinking 22/23 tooth ?

[assob4]

on carpet i have 20 tooth

the temperature is ok



(Soory for my bad englisch)

[Northy]

23 is a good start I'd say, but I'd probably look to go bigger if it's not getting too hot.

Reg, I'm trying to be more sesible this year and leaving the 4.5 in the pit box. Too much cash being spent on spares! Anyway more importantly I'm sure I saw a Durango like yours for sale, are you going soft

I'll try a 23, cheers G, do you have a set up with Vegas 208 software now your on tekin? I'm going to try a rs pro again, had thermal probs before in the Durango with a x12 5.5 , I'm hoping it should be ok with a 6.5

Thanks for the help guys

No problem. Yes I can tell you what I'm running at the moment, I've not had much chance to play yet, but what I'm using now is still good Speedo comes off nice and cool

I'll have a look for you (can't remember off the top of my head), but I won't be able to tonight as its my wedding anniversary and I don't think I'm allowed to play with toy cars tonight.

I ran randy pikes set up for 208 software from the tekin website with a x12 5.5 at the weekend and it is coming off very cool now 2/3 lights , as you said it was on the verge of thermaling with the old software

[samd]

2/3 lights! How did the power compare to the old software?, i think the last time i ran my rs pro i was on 1.98 and i was on full 7 lights

Thanks for the info

(Randys 6.5 setup?)

[Andyp]

yeah sorry, it was randys 6.5 set up . im not sure about the power as i ran 7.5 for a while after my 5.5 was getting stuff too hot so 5.5 felt alot quicker!! so cant comment on the software power compare. i ran 21 pinion with the std motor timing

[samd]

I was running 20t with my 6,5 on indoor hard packed dirt...way too hot. Going to try 22t next and maybe bigger. We'll see. 3rd time driving the car, trial and error I suppose.
