The Faster Cracker Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) ok so i entered a drag racing series and the first race is coming up this weekend. i have a set of v-force 3's coming in along with my mods lsited in sig. i will be running paddles since the only other tires i have are the stock POS ones and its pretty loose dirt. i ahve a choice between running a 14 or 13 toothe front sproket. just wondering what yall think. the paddles are 8 inch but i dont remember the exact size. i jsut know they are straight paddles and the only 8 inch rim that Kenda offers. what do yall think i should do?

bigboybanshee Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 How long is the strip you're racing on? That makes a big difference in how you should gear Get you some better tires!!! You probably won't have good results with the paddles.... Quote
The Faster Cracker Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Posted March 21, 2007 its a 300 foot course. the only reason i was going to run paddles because i wont be able to get tires by this weekend. plus i have seen and know from experience that paddles will hook up more in this stuff. it is basically sand.

bigboybanshee Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 In that case, I would try the 13 tooth, taking off in second. :beer: Are you running a 41 tooth in the rear? Quote
r/atvshee Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 a 14/42 gearing would probably work well too. Quote
The Faster Cracker Posted March 22, 2007 Author Report Posted March 22, 2007 i only have the stock rear sprocket Quote
bigboybanshee Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 i only have the stock rear sprocket Stock is 41 tooth...13/41 should do you good :beer: Quote
