      I have been in karting a long time, I have raced short and long tracks, but I have not been to Mid Ohio Sports Car Course.  I am in the Yamaha Heavy with pipe Class and this will be a so called “Bucket Event” for me as I am not as young as I used to be ;)  So, as to not get blown out on the first lap, I am asking what gear ratio might get me in the ball park. ??  Thanks for any response.  Tom

      TJ,

      I do have and used a tach. / temp.  gauge  a “Didgitron”  One thing is that there seems to be no simple way to varify a stall speed ?  is there?

      The information on 219 vs 35 was very helpful

      So Thanks for your input. I appreciate it!

      Tony,

      That stall rpm is an estimate.  I’m not totaly sure what it really is.   And I believe I saw 12,000+ as a max RPM.  It made me a little nervous.  I thought it to be TOO HIGH!  As far as the #35 chain vs #219   … the #35 chain  is what I’ve always run in the past, I can switch over to 219 but I would need all new gears. What would be the advantage in switching to 219?

      Yes Tony, I was <span style=”color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 21px;”>over revving the engine at the fastest part of the track.  The stall speed was about 11,000.  </span>I was only there for the evening race that day, so I only had a couple test sessions that evening, before the races started.  I should have asked some questions that nigt of other racers but I did not.  Hindsite is 20/20.

      Thanks for your Ideas.
