2006 season I had 4.10 gears (41 ring-10 pinion) and broke the ring gear spraying out of the hole.
Put in 4.11 gears (39 ring - 9 pinion) broke the carrier same week. Ran this set of gears with new carrier for a full season then broke the ring gear spraying out of the hole on the last day that the track was open.
I have now gone back to stock (3.23 gears) so I don't shift into OD through the traps this season. I am making 100+ hp more this season than last.
My spare 10 bolt has 3.42, but is in my storage unit.

Question, I am going to 4.10's with an A4 I have an ms3 cam and the rev limiter is set at 7100, with a yank ss4000 and a 150 shot do you think I will run out of rpm in third? The gear calculator says I won't but I am not sure, I don't want to get into OD when at the track. Last year on 3.73's I was going through the traps at about 6200/6300. Maybe 3.90's are the right gear for me? Last year I traped at 126.
