HillShooter AZ Posted July 11, 2008 Report Posted July 11, 2008 How many teeth for rear and back sprockets for 1/4 flat drag? Will 14/42 work? I'm a sand drag guy (hillshooter) Thanks for any help! Quote

Natemills8 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Posted July 11, 2008 I ran a 14 front 40 rear drag racing in 200 ft & I was gettin 5th gear at the line & running 3.9s Quote
06BaNsHeE Posted July 11, 2008 Report Posted July 11, 2008 depends on motor size and tire size and weight of rider but dont think that gearing will make a whole 1/4 mile Quote
HillShooter AZ Posted July 11, 2008 Author Report Posted July 11, 2008 I'm running a stock motor with some mods and I weight in at 220. Quote
HillShooter AZ Posted July 11, 2008 Author Report Posted July 11, 2008 tire size in the back is 21X12X8 Quote
desertdeweller Posted September 24, 2008 Report Posted September 24, 2008 they let you run the full 1/4 in tucson? last time I was out at speedworld in surprise they would only let the quads run 1/8 mile. But I think you will need to change the gearing for that maybe 15 or even 16 front Quote
trex banshee Posted September 30, 2008 Report Posted September 30, 2008 for 1/4 mile your gonna need more than 14/42 even with a 21" tall tire. i run 17/44 with 18" tire in the 1/8th mile and run out of gear. granted the 3 inches you have me on tire will help a bunch but i have you on gearing by quite a bit. Ive never been able to run 1/4, so i can't tell you for sure but my guess with that tire height i would say atleast 17/41 and higher and thats if your motor will pull the gear. Quote
