Default Single digit guys, what gear ratios are you running?
This is more of a statistics thing than anything else, I'm just wondering what gear ratio you're running. Thanks

not sure, i just figured those gear ratios were for guys with really tall tires, but i can't find anyone that runs a tire that tall. maybe just dragsters?
