24 x 8.5 x 14's ... with 4.86's are awesome in small arena's .... otherwise 4.10's are about right for them... usually if you have deep gears then your compensating for a week motor...

you have to remember that not every track is bigger than a football field.. around here 4.56-600 are normal ratios.. i run a smaller ratio than guys who have alot more motor than me.. around here 4:10 gears are snails pace gears... 5:13/5:14 is the common 80s style gear. 5:14 and up for heavier cars..

Seems to work well. Just trying to figure out what tires we want now. |

these were nice and grippy..... NOT VERY GOOD ON DRY TRACKS ..... JUST WANT TO SPIN but almost get too much traction on a pretty tacky track which actually is starting to rip the lugs off..... so Ill save them for swampy tracks......so theyre getting doubled over the winter and will be good to go next year   |

4.10 with 700-13 or 23x8.50 12. Run mostly Vics. I run a standard 3 speed which makes a huge difference on final gear ratio.
