Re: spur gears for indoor?
Hi James,
The Hot Bodies Cyclone(Latest TC Model)has the Upgraded 18T Pulleys & Belts as Standard........this means that it would be Geared slightly different to all of the Previous Versions of the Cyclone Touring Car.
If your planning to run a 13.5T Motor Indoors, I would say that a good Starting Point for Gearing, would be to have a Final Drive Ratio of around 5.4
Ideally, this would mean that you'd be Geared at : 98Spur/39Pinion(What I was on at HRCCC last Season)
If you've still got the Original Spur Gear from the Cyclone TC Kit, you could go on : 100Spur/40Pinion, which would also acheive the Ratio you need
I'm not sure, but its doubtful that the other Spur Gears you mentioned, would Mesh with the Pinion you'd need, to get the Required Ratio for 13.5T Motor.
Hope this helps

Re: spur gears for indoor?
hi dean,
i think my cyclone is the 08' model and i just got a roller as i bought it second hand.
also i dont really know alot about ratio's and gearing so i need some help sortin it out.
on saterday it was not bad around the infield but down the straight it was pathetic.
cheers, James
