Turnigy Trackstar gearing?

[ste_lazzaro]

Hi! Anyone having some experience on Turnigy Trackstar motors (the silver version)?
I have a 6.5T, to be used in a 2WD buggy, and need some advice for the gearing ratio..
Thanks!;)

I run a 24/25 at Coventry on my 7.5 and some boost and turbo so i'd say start on a 22/23 depending on the track size

Thanks! Could you please refer to overall ratio? I run Associated B4.1 tranny..

Wow, this gearing looks pretty heavy: 9.57 with 22t pinion.
I tried with an overall ratio 10.03 as per AE default suggestion but didn't have speed.. I will try a bigger pinion.
Hoping temps don't increase too much.
Thanks!!;)

Ive never checked the temps on it TBH - i just geared it for speed and add boost and turbo for bigger tracks _ been running it since April at regional and clubbies, grass and astro and its always worked fine.
