Default 4.30 gear and Nitrous?????

Is 4.30 gear to much for a 50 to 100 shot using a 325/50/15 MT DR. I have a cam only car rest of mods are in sig. Thx for the input guys.

If it doesn't work then you could put a progressive controller on it. One of the things I used to do was have the nitrous button on my shifter handle and not just a wide open throttle switch. It was on a big block with a 300 shot on street tires and I would launch and then feather the button with my finger to limit the nitrous and as soon as I got out a little ways I would hold it down. I guess I was using my finger as a crude progressive controller.

i had a hard time w/m6,4.11,26'' tires,150 shot on a h&c car,w/7,150 rev. last 100 feet in 4th gear i hit the rev. BUT, i had my shift light set at 6,300 and when i moved it down to 5,800 i made it all the way to the end. if you can't make it shift sooner and you may do it.
