I'd start with 10 or 11 :1, really depends on the amount of straight length to number of corners and short lengths; aim to get it reaching max speed 2/3rds to 3/4s of the way down the longest straight is usually a good starting point depending on your driving style.

there is no straight, with only a few small straight bits
