i am runnig a 16 in the front right now, what should i run for 100yd drags, looking to be as fast as possible and maybe outrun some rappys at the next drags !!! i have a pipe filter rev box jets and a degree key and now i just need to gear it perfect for the drag strips, its loose dirt and i have the oem tires on it

Juggalo you dont know what a yard is? heh...

15/36 is a perfect drag racing gear. It works well on flat ground on grass, dirt or sand.

I guess the only prob with that gearing is if you bike isnt very strong, you will notice it on large hills.

I have a 465 with 41 mm FCR carb running race gas. With 15/36 running 20" 9 paddle tires I'm having to take off in second draging in the sand. It still to low I'm thinking about going to a 34 on the rear.

i know a yard is 3 feet..but i'm way too lazy to figure out the math. actually i just did it. ok cool. yeah me and my friends have all had great luck on our EX's with stock gearing for the 100 yard (300 ft as i call em) drags. we've even had 1st places against cheaters (stock class) with that gearing.,

I use a 15/34 on my 440 for long races. I think the 14/34 works the best in 300ft runs and pretty much all around! :D

i use 15/36 on my 426 and in the 100 yard sand drags i can run a 5.7, i think itll be good exspecially since ur on dirt and not sand...
