Default Another next mod question

I'm going to put this in here since it involves a cam and i think it will get me more responces in this section. My car is a 98WS6 M6, with mods in sig. I have managed to save up some money and have roughly enough for an intake and cam swap, OR a new rearend. I'm not quite sure on my cam choice yet, either torquer v3, ms3, or ms4. But the cam won't be able to be used to full potential due to having to baby launch on street tires at the track. The car is pretty much just a summer weekend car that goes to shows and the track. To me it almost seems a little wiser to buy the rear end now while i have the cash and save some more money while i finalize my cam/intake plans. What do you guys think?
