    Default Blackhawk Farms Gearing

    What final gear ratio would be recommended for Black Hawk Farms and Brainard for F1000?

    Thanks

    Final ratio would depend on your tire size but here are the top speeds to aim for:

    Blackhawk Farms 134 mph.

    Brainard 151 mph.

    No I am still building, and I am ordering someother parts and I want to consoladate my order. Black Hawk is simular to Gimli, we used the same gear set at both tracks in the Piper FC. So I am looking to find out what guys use there in FB so my test days next spring will be productive. My car (84SF) will be regional as it is not up to snuff with the Firmans and Stors,(plus I am no Hot Shoe) which would make Brainard the closest track for me to play at.

    Regards
