Default gears with this cam and spray?

m6 here ,i am debating on which gears to go with. i have a moser 12 bolt with 3.73's. i changed my cam and went with a g5x3 112. i will be spraying 100 or 125 shot. i would like to go with 4.11's but worry about having to shift into 5th at the track. the spray will basically only be used at the track.
thanks

i heard if u go with 4.10s or 4.11s, you can still keep it in 4th IF u run 28" tall tires, that would be like a 275/60/15 tire or 255/60/16 or somethng close to that or if u get some mickey thompsons, their sizes are usually straight up like 28x11.5 16 or something like that.
