What brand of pinion do you use? Is one better than another?

I am not a go-fast brush-zilla guy, but here is how the seasoned guys seem to do it...

Have a bunch of pinions on hand. Buy the faster system and gear down, that way nothing is being worked too hard. You are much better to run a faster motor with a small pinion, than a slower motor with a large pinion.

With the DF it is pretty straight forward gearing. Spur is 86T/48P so it just comes down to pinion now..well I guess a person could play around with spur gears too, eh? Even switch in 32P....I am sure something must fit. Tinkering!! I can call it the Tinker Toy!! hehehe
