no what youre saying is that 12:1 gets a higher speed. this is incorrect. lower than the stock 9:86:1, such as 8:25:1, 6:57:1, etc., gears make your speed increase. higher gears such as 12:1, 15:1, etc.,decrease your speed but increase your acceleration. and there is no need to call me a post-whore. i am trying to correct my over-post syndrome.
