does anybody have a good starting point for a SRX700 with 8bu-00 weights for 500 feet? Also what gearing to run for 500 feet?

8bu-00 what rivets and where? probably load first hole heavier for 500'?? with 20-40 gearing will the stock chain work??YAMMIEGOD3:16 said:20/40 GEARING. 8bu @ 55 GRAMS , 51-37 CAM around 70 twist. 3:16 (yammie tony)
What for helix would ya run with that setup? Straight 43?
also is the 51/37 good for drags or for speed runs? this setup is going to be used for drags. I am 100% new to running drags so I'm not sure on setup of suspension either. I know draggers want their sleds to run differently than a speed run sled.YAMMIEGOD3:16 said:20/40 GEARING. 8bu @ 55 GRAMS , 51-37 CAM around 70 twist. 3:16 (yammie tony)

THATS A 500 F.T GRASS DRAG SET-UP. BUT LIKE THE 8BU-10 SET-UP I PUT ON HERE, YOU HAVE TO TEST AND NOT TWO SLEDS ARE ALIKE. SO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO IS USE ANY INFO YOU GET AND BUILD OFF IT. NOW I HAVE USED THAT ANGLE FOR BOTH, BUT TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT PRIMARY SET-UPS. 3:16 (yammie tony)
ok do I want to load the heal or the tip of the weights heavier?YAMMIEGOD3:16 said:THATS A 500 F.T GRASS DRAG SET-UP.
