Default RC18 gearing

I finally got my Rc18T up and running for the first time and the 7 cell battery and AON 4900 brushless is great fun!!! I set the quark esc up so that its smoother acceleration and not full on acceleration (till i get used to it ). I am running 1/10 rims, rally tyres with a gearing of 12/60, just wondering if I run the 55t spur will this make a big difference to the torque and what is a good size pinion to run with the 55t. I am just bashing on dirt etc.

I am also running 1/10 rallys but without any other mods to the motor or batts. What are the stock gears at and what should I be running to bring my max spped back up?

18t and b are 14/55
18mt is 10/60. The 18t and b are faster.
