Hello All,
I am new to this lovely sport and I just aquired a TAG. I am interested to know what size sprockets people run at qualcom.
Thanks!

You didn't say what motor your TAG is - so this information is only for the Leopard. The gearing for Rotax, or other motors, may be significantly different.
A good starting point for the West course, with an 11 tooth driver gear, is somewhere in the 76 to 80 tooth range - depending on your willingness to stretch your motor revs. The book says 15K is the limit, so don't risk the seat time by breaking the motor your first time out. Also, your first couple of practices should let you confirm your sprocket choice. You will have a chance to change it between races. Sprocket selection will be affected by track conditions, the temperature, and your comfort with the speed a TAG offers.
Good luck and Welcome!
