i jus got it out again and i needs slipper clutch plates i think i had to tall of gearing because it wouldnt wheelie at all and it has a gs bo1 .21 motor in it so it should wheelie ...it has a 46 tooth spur gear (smoked now) and an 18 tooth clutch bell wat sould i go eith for a spur gear to get good top end but still have wheelie power i know this isnt the biggest horsepower king motor out there but it should have good enough power to make this thing fly
 
looks like a fun rig, should be pretty sweet with that engine in it.
 
yeah it should be but it will not wheelie !!!! i like it to but i gotta get a new spur gear so wat size spur gear should i go for with my 18 tooth clutch bell to have low end enough to wheelie and enough top end to fly?
 
To get more of a punch in acceleration you will need More teeth on the spur gear and the less on the CLutch Bell.

i forgot to mention a good tune will obviously help as well. Gear Ratios play a BIG role in how your truck runs. Also keep in mind bro that when you change ur gears to get more torque from the start you have to sacrifice top speed.
