What gears should I run I'm not sure if I should change to 3:73 or not. I have only been down the track 3 times so I'm learning how to launch the car still. My best 60' is 1.722 thats with 3:42 and a SY4000, my nittos were at 14psi. I'm not conserned about traction on the sreet but I do plan on sraying a 100 shot soon and I don't want to sit on the rev limiter. Thanks for your help Jimmy
Re: What gears should I run 3.42s are good on the spray. 3.73s work if you can rev high enough to handle the extra mph and converter slip (assuming no lock-up switch).
If you have 3.23s, I'd keep them for now. You can spray out of the hole if you have excess traction. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: What gears should I run I have 4.10's, the car runs really strong, I have no converter and I ran 13.079@108.59 Saturday at MIR. The car is not my daily driver, but I drove 180 miles round trip to Maryland on one tank. Stop by sometime I live in Mosby Station...
