Gearing

[drbanshee]

Im racing 300ft sand drags, I was wondering what gearing is the best. I have a 4mil banshee, around 70hp with a 12+ swinger, and 22-11-8 72 roll out. I weigh a 165lbs. Im using 14/42 gearing right now. Thanks for any opions.

I think your gearing is about right but you have about 4-6" too much swingarm. With 70 hp you should be able to run a plus 6 with 9 paddles and not wheelie at all unless you weigh 120lbs or are on a real hard hookin track. But your setup is all ready for more HP.
