When you're saying speed if you mean top end then yes bigger pinion and or smaller spur, if you're after more acceleration the reduce the size of your pinion.

Hi,

I have added a link for you to a Dex210 gear ratio chart

Team Durango Gear Ratio Chart

Like already suggested if you are looking for top speed you would generally go for a larger pinion or if you are wanting more bottom end then you might go for a smaller pinion.

Always check when changing pinions that your motor is not getting to hot after your run :-)

I currently run a 8.5t motor with a 25 pinion on 87 spur
