Given your suspension and tire setup that's pretty good IMO!

2.73 Gearing explains the weak back half, 3.23+ would really wake it up, i bet a 10th in the 60, 2-3 10ths and mph in the 1/8th and 3-4 in the 1/4, with a cam your really ******* it in 3rd gear below your powerband

I'm sure I did. Tonight was the last track day for the year. Winter plans are getting a new rear and 3.70-3.89 gears. So hopefully that helps out.

I had a H/C T/A putting down 450/415 that ran 7.447@95mph and 11.539@119 with a 1.75 60' and I had 3.73s - will the gearing really change his mph that much?

It should yeah, hes sandbagging it accross the line in 3rd with those 2.73s at like 5000 rpm, his car has probably 50 more hp at 6000+ than there where he would finish with 3.73s

Yup, my car with 2.73s fell asleep at the 8th. Went 12.9 @ 104 but was going 8.17 in the 8th. And that's with a stock motor.

Congrats! A set of 3.73's would really wake that thing up! Heck throw some 4.10's in it!
