19/57=3ratio's and gears alway bring up some funy discussion .
A 20/62 =3.1
A 51/17 =3.0
At 5000 RPM
With a 34" tire the 3.1 travels 54,838.6 inches
With a 34" tire the 3.0 travels 56,666.6 Inches
Or my Math sucks .
The trick here is to be able to turn target rpm with both combos,ratio's and gears alway bring up some funy discussion .

That is true, but knowing a little bit of the other things cant hurt lol.I thought ya were a tire guy. lol
Thanks to all for the input.We just changed to the mini gear setup on our slacks and definitely found more speed at every track we race on. Nothing really changed in our tire game or other setup areas. I fought it for years and couldn't justify the cost, but our team owner bought sets for all karts and all have went consistently faster since
Definetly can tell big diffr n ours especially n qualifyn...Im not racing science books. Its been proven out on the race track many times. Its why some of the best in the sport use them, consistently.
Go to any of the biggest races in the country and you will see this as well.
The nonsense is always spread by those who cant see reality.
