Re: Gears for CIMs
Matt,

The bore on the CIMs this year is an 8mm keyed shaft as per page 1, section 6 "The Kit". While the spec sheet from last year lists it as .313 +/- .0004. Either gear will do fine, a .313 is just a tighter fit, and needs a little "coercing" to go on the shaft. An 8mm bore should spin freely on the shaft without any need for some help to be put on. I did this exact same thing on Thursday, so I am more confident in the kits listed 8mm.
