Default T-MAXX 2.5 Gearing/Transmission Question

I want to just mess around with my t-maxx's gearing and see what kind of off the line power I can get through gearing so my thinking is throw on a 16 tooth clutch bell and a 76 tooth spur gear, this is the highest ratio I've found, are there any other clutch bell/spur gear combos that I've missed? and after that is done is there any way to change the gearing within the transmission to get a little more power?
thanks!

That is the lowest gearing available. I have the 18t clutch with the 72t gear and maxx mulcher tires and after 1 gallon of fuel my 2.5 will wheelie easily.

If you go with the 16t and the 76 t gearing do not run it wide open after it is up to speed as you will probably over rev your engine. That gearing will be good for wheelies and very short tracks only.
