is there any way to gear down my tsunami
are there any 2spd clutchbells that will gear down my tsunami? i race on a small track.i want it to be a little more peppy out of corners.it has great mid and top but lacks in the bottom end. i have the vx.18 in it. i know i could go with a dif motor,mine works good. just want to improve a bit. i dont mind sacrificing some top end speed.

its just alittle hesitant,from the start. my bb doesnt have that problem. that things flys for what it is. thats why i asked if there was a way to gear it down a bit. they use the same motor and tranny, as well as gearing. the only difference is tire sizes.so i guess it luggs a bit

You could also get the 3-piece HPI 2-speed clutch bell with whatever gears you like, so long as they're 5 teeth apart. i.e., 12/17, 15/20, 17/22, etc.

go to the second page youll see a break down of the parts i used. its the best thing you can do to the tsunami. Still 2 speed, easy to install, easy to find parts, and makes it a ton faster
