What CB do you guys run. I have a OS .21 and a Spider center diff. What # of teeth should run. I just bash in small areas. like 150ft by 100ft. and I do jumps and ditches.
i am getting a Ofna vented CB.

Thanks.
 
yes a Hyper 7 PBS, I was just off, cause I think the stock one is 14T and some people run a 12t but was not sure which way to go. Thanks VB
 
Depends on your engine characteristics and the type of terrain you race/bash on.

If you have a high-revving engine (poor low-end torque) and/or race on a short tight track the stick with the 13T.

If you have a torquey engine (like an OS 21RG) and/or race on a long, fast track then a 15T or maybe higher would be more appropriate.
 
Well I have a OS 21RG, but i run on small rugged stuff, and my local future track will be small and twisty
 
Yea, a 13T is the way to go. That combo should give you good torque for the short and twisty track. Most buggies come stock with a 13T, and I wouldn't step up to a 14 unless you decide to run a .25+ engine.
 
also keep in mind that no CB will work if the clutch shoes don't engage right....

a good aluminum clutch setup with a 13T CB will do the trick....

sorry....just noticed noone had mentioned that:)
 
Thats true husky,

I prefer the Mugen aluminum shoes with 1.0mm springs. Great set up.
 
i am running carbons with 1.1 springs. the carbons are ok for me, and the 1.1 springs let the mill rap up a bit befor enguaging. it gives you a bit more take off.
 
lightened Flywheel (Xray), Mugen or Xray Aluminum shoes 1.0 springs and 14t CB w/ .063 pipe has just been the most ass kicking setup I tried w/ an RG......
