Sorry for all the questions, I know they are basic stuff but I just don't want to buy the wrong things!
Hi there, with gear ratios I have used the set up sheets on the Schumacher website and for other cars the petit rc website, most cars if you get the instruction manual if you are buying secondhand or on schumachers website you can download the manual for each car they will have a ratio chart in the back for gearing but you would adjust teeth up or down depending on motor, I run a Schumacher K2 and a KF2 and have just followed the set up sheets for the surface I'm racing on and the motor wind. Also ask at the club you are planing to race at if you are buying a popular car at that club as most of the other guys will usually be happy to help out
