Default RE: hows the freeway speed revo project?

Ya, its my idea. I'm still collecting parts for it.

I just ordered a new CVEC Big Block pipe for my OS .30 and new bearings all around for my RPM steering blocks to make sure everything rolls nicely.

I'm having trouble finding a clutch bell with enough teeth though. The largest I can find is a 20 tooth.

I'm running a 1/8th scale clutch from a Savage and I can't find any larger clutch bells in either 1/8th or 1/10th scale that are the same pitch as Revo spur gears.

I'll be using a 34tooth spur. Does anyone know where I can fine a clutch bell with more teeth?

Also anyone have any of those Hotbodies 7.7 tires they want to sell? They are the biggest tires I can find and larger tires make more of a difference than higher gearing for top end speed.

Jumbo Kong tires by Imex are 8". Not much bigger, but a little. But they look pretty heavy.

The Jumbo Kongs look like they wouldn't be real good on road at high speeds.

What I would really like is a set of ProLine RoadRage tires but taller.

If there a tire with that type of tread that is taller than the RoadRage tires?
