It depends on your motor and the track. In the 1/10 4WD short course truck class, racers gear by final drive ratio: 4000 Kv and up near 11.00. On the SC10 4x4's stock 91T spur that is about 21T for 4000 Kv and up. Tight tracks gear down, open tracks gear up. For a starting pinion matched to your motor, use the So Dialed Pinion Recommender with the SC10 4x4 selected.
What is the internal ratio (transmission ratio) of the Team Associated SC10 4x4?
The SC10 4x4 has an internal ratio of 2.57:1. Final drive ratio = spur ÷ pinion × 2.57. With the stock 91T spur, a 13T pinion gives an FDR of 17.99 and a 20T gives 11.69.
How many teeth is the stock spur gear on the Team Associated SC10 4x4?
91 teeth. Changing the spur moves every pinion's ratio at once; most racers leave the spur and tune with the pinion.
