Default DAMN!! It broke!! What to do!!

Hello there fellow Nitro Lunatics!!

Well, this weekend while taking some serious air, I stripped my clutch bell, seems in my hasty preparation for Sunday's day of bashing, stupid me forgot to loctite my engine after removing for some maint, and after launching about 5 feet in the air, the engine must have moved and..BAM!!..there goes the Clutch Bell..

Question to the masses, I was using a 23 tooth Clutch Bell, none of my LHS' have any in stock, they all have a 22 tooth bell..it will be about 2 weeks b4 they any of them get one in..

AND I DON'T THINK I CAN WAIT 2 WHOLE WEEKS WITH NO NITRO!! :cry:

Will using a 22 tooth .vs a 23 tooth clutch bell really make a difference? any comments are appreciated..

By the way, for those who have asked in the past...here is my first pic of the JeDi_MaStEr in his natural surroundings...

You will lose about 5 percent of your top end (1-3 MPH), but you will get a little better acceleration.

No it wont.It may if your racing and looking for 100ths os a second.
But 1 tooth shouldn't make much difference for bashing.
