new racer here, trying to figure things out
« on: June 08, 2016, 02:26:39 am »
How do i achieve 4:1 ratio?  Change the engine pulley/transaxle pulley? As my race mower sits now, it's 5:1... 7" pulley on the motor, 4" pulley on the transaxle (race prepped) sucks its a transaxle

why do you want to be at 4:1 ratio... 5:1 is probably a lot closer to what you need to run

I heard from a few people, most the GP (single) runs 4:1
I'll most likely leave it where it is, see how it is, i need seat time/track time as well bring new to the sport, can always adjust later on
