it depends what kind of car u are running really 2wd 7.5 or 8.5 or 4wd 5.5 or 6.5 is the usual that people choose but it depends on what u feel comfy with hope this helps

6.5t 19/87

Orion 10.5t on 26/81 in the Bmax
LRP 5.5t on 21/84 in the RC10T.

And yes, I know that really the other way round makes more sense.....

the 5.5 lrp vector is just silly in my fs but the 5.5 ezrun in my stock lazer seems really nice but lacks a bit of punch both cars I am running a 21 pinion and stock spur might try and get a 6.5 I think

[rc boy]

try putting it up a pinion or 2 to give you the extra punch or turn up the punch on your speedo

Yes - I used to use an Ezrun 5.5t (found it a little sluggish at the time) then Novak 5.5L, then LRP 5.5t, and was surprised at what a beast the LRP is. Which is why its such a laugh in my old truck, but I prefer a lesser motor in my serious racer.
