has anyone tried this tall of a gear? i have that gearing right now and need to know if it will work. i have 22" tires.


what would the speed be with this gearing with 20" tires at 9500RPMS?

 

1 Gear MPH 40.9601449275362
2 Gear MPH 64.36594202898551
3 Gear MPH 85.98503706162186
4 Gear MPH 107.2765700483092
5 Gear MPH 128.00045289855075

It is your duty and obligation as a skilled drag racer to test this gearing out. Let the rest of us know what it feels like going 128 on a DS!!!!!!

 

will your engine pull all the way to 9500 in fifth gear? and if it does how does it excellerate? that is real fast for off road.

 

Nah. Theres always variables you can't account for like, clutch slippage, angle of ascent or descent, win.

 

Does wind resistance really matter anyway? I mean sure it will hinder you ability to pull 9500rpm, but if you are indeed pulling 9500 rpm then math is all thats needed, with the exception of clutch slippage. Wind, uphill, downhill - who cares, rpm is rpm.
I know that 9500 is unachievable in fifth gear with a stock motor (and aftermarketcdi), but dsmike is far from stock from what I hear. It'll be interesting.

 

my motor peaks power right around 9500. i know the motor will pull to peak power in 5th gear. does anyone not think any motor will not pull to its peak power in the highest gear? i don't think it will pull more than it peak. my motor still pulls good up to 10,500RPMS.(about 52 or 53HP)


AZsand posted that he ran 115MPH in a mile race in the sand does anyone know what gearing he is running?
