It depends on your motor and the track. In the 1/10 2WD buggy class, racers gear by final drive ratio: 6T and below near 9.40, 7.5–8.5T near 9.22, 17.5T near 6.48. On the RC10 B4 Family's stock 81T spur that is about 22T for 6T and below, 23T for 7.5–8.5T, 33T for 17.5T. Tight tracks gear down, open tracks gear up. For a starting pinion matched to your motor, use the So Dialed Pinion Recommender with the RC10 B4 Family selected.
What is the internal ratio (transmission ratio) of the Team Associated RC10 B4 Family?
The RC10 B4 Family has an internal ratio of 2.6:1. Final drive ratio = spur ÷ pinion × 2.6. With the stock 81T spur, a 18T pinion gives an FDR of 11.70 and a 32T gives 6.58.
How many teeth is the stock spur gear on the Team Associated RC10 B4 Family?
81 teeth. Changing the spur moves every pinion's ratio at once; most racers leave the spur and tune with the pinion.
