Gearing

zienna · #1 10-03-2014

Hi all can anyone tell me what the best gearing to use on the norfolk track?
I have a Durango dex410 with a 5.5 thunder power motor and 87 spur.

Thank you for your help.

I can't comment exactly as I don't own a Durango, but i'd be looking for an overall ratio of around 10.5/1 to 11/1 with a 5.5.

Excellent il try that. Thank you.

Not sure about what a Thunder Power motor likes, but on my Durango with a LRP 5.5 I'd be starting on a 19t pinion, Vampire/Orion/SpeedPassion motors I was on a 21t just about everywhere in our region, maybe go up one for Boughton as it has a massive straight.

Wow, a 5.5T motor will be hairy around NBC. It's not a large track.
