Default Best Gear For Sprayed Car?

I plan on going with the Nitrous Daves Plate kit within the next couple months....and was wondering what gears you guys are running with your sprayed cars?

With a 28" tall tire. My car has 4.11's with a 26" tire and its not enough to go through the 1/4 without going into 5th gear. I'm stepping up to a 28"

No your wrong. You need a taller tire to keep you in the gear longer.Its all about the rollout of the tire. I shift my car @7000rpms

Thats odd. 26" tire on the motor I can do 125 or so with the 4.11's
