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 B7.1/B7.1D's stock 78T spur that is about 22T for 6T and below, 22T for 7.5–8.5T, 31T 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 B7.1/B7.1D selected.
