I plan on runnig TAG Heavy, can someone please give me a starting point for gearing. This will be my first time at Laguna and since there is only one practice session I would like to be in the ballpark so I can make a change if needed and be good for Bmain. I am running a PRD and just as a reference I run a 15:75 at Big Willow.

Thank you for any help you may be able to provide.

I had to add 3 or 4 more teeth compared to Big Willow. But I ran a Rotax. Maybe this will help.
How is the Motel 6 in Monterey? They said I could park with the trailer!

Bret,
I ran a Leopard at Laguna Seca last year.
Start with 16/81 That will get you in the ball park.
Watch out for the up hill out of the pits, very easy to cook your clutch.
LS is a great track, I'd be running the race but Shoulder Surgery has me out of the Kart for a couple of months.

Ray

Thanks, that helps. If I make it, will be staying in Salinas at the Motel 6. Not sure which one, north or south, will be going with my uncle George and Dave Fultz.

Doug,

Thanks, I only have a 15 so that works out to a 15:76. Will start somewhere close to that, probably a 15:77. Thanks for the advice, RR is a little hard on the clutch with the gearing. Get well soon and hope to see you at a NCK race later this year.

Why you guys all so quiet...? Where's the anger, where's the threats, someone needs to be the bad guy around here and stir up some competition. I wanna see sidepods flying and big dirt clouds off the end of the chute, winging punches at the scales... come on!!! Mad

I've been busy out in the race trailer putting my ride together for LS, so you won't see ME out there with sidepods flying or big dirt clouds around my kart.... I hope. I need to stay ON track during a race for a change.

Shocked
