the problem with the 3.25:1 gearing is that there is not enough torque to get you going. and you need a long enough straight a way just to reach maxium speed. your better off pairing the r-spec motor to either 8.25:1 or 9.86:1 gearing.

actually i just double checked, there is no 3.25, did you mean to say 8.25?

The main gear supposedly has the same number of teeth, so you wouldnt think there would be a difference, however all the sites say the gears can bind up when you do this /shrug

I like things to match hehe

the gears are actually 3.43:1 not 3.25:1 they're pretty fast tho once you get them to fit on your bit char-g

Why not get a 3.8L motor if you want speed? Aren't they the highest-revving available right now?
