As you can see by my decription below this might help answer my question. Right now i have a 12 sproket on front which makes 1st pretty much useless but it will allow me start start in secound with these engine mods. I am wondering if i should put on a 14 sproket and start in first? The 14 seems to me would create a stronger start but i would like your opinons. One more thing, where we race it is up hill. thanks

 

depending on what hill and your weight i like the 13/40 combo or the 14/40 combo for that kit,i believe that you will be able to pull third pretty quick up a hill but the 12 toothe might be good for flat drags..

 

You should have no problems pulling the 14 and this eliminates extra shifting.

 

I started in second when I had a 14

 

BigScary, could you pull 3rd?

 

Starting in second eliminates the possibility of hitting neutral also...

 

I hate neutral. I feel like the biggest idiot in a race when I slam it into nuetral, im sure everyone in front of me is laughing at me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

i just put on my 12t sprocket and heading to the dunes next weekend, i wanna see the difference. i hope to race some stock raptors since i am all stock besides the sprocket and k&n. i was told tostart in 2nd and you will see a big difference. i have already seen the difference on dirt...wow

 

All I do is ride in the dunes and race up hills, check out my gearing (14/40 if you didn't see it in the sig). So far it's workin great but I'm debuting gearing down just a titch bit more so I can get a better start in 2nd. As of right now I can start in 2nd and usually do but it bogs slightly when I drop the clutch.
