9500 hot farm question November 01, 2021 02:07PM
What gear ratio do 9500 hot farms use? 22:1? 19:1?

All help is appreciated!

You are right in the ballpark. All depends on your weight class and track conditions.

Seems like they’d be in 19:1 easily, running 18:1 most the time and maybe 17:1 on a loose track. I know budget people running 20:1 and 19:1 with a 1/5 of the money spent in the motor vs someone who went all out only to gain another tooth. Hmmm

Just remeber another gear faster can be another 10’ further. So that extra money spent in the motor is well worth it in that case.

It can also be 20’ farther back. Ground speed is dependent on rpm. You can go just as fast down the track in 22-1 as you can in 19-1.

I run a 4 speed, 19 is high and 22 is low, I use them all last summer

I agree Jonesy let them try their big gears in some of the sticky south and eastern ohio tracks and watch them get embarrassed! I've seen it happen many times.
