What other factors involved besides R&P,, are there new weddle gear ratios too ? Climbig if first or second? In other words the power band is better where? compared to what? just curious

i guess i could have been more specific. on the steep stuff with very little run 1st gear stays in the power band whereas before with the 4.57 i would have to use the clutch to get the rpm up usually breaking traction. the car feels lighter because the power is more responsive. 2nd gear on the trails and on long gradual hills, its the same thing more power, more speed through the woods. i can roll in and out of 2nd gear without down shifting to 1st. on the open flat long runs i can really fly in 3rd gear and occasionally 4th. i dont have the ratios of my weddle gear sets handy i will post them later. gotta find the receipt. (a little help here buggyb maybe you remember)
