Car sounds great and you did good against an FI car! Nice job. That SRT moves out also.
As for him pulling you up top, I would think that your gear ratio will probably hurt you more than help. Great for 1/8 or 1/4 mile but that steep gear will not do much for your top end. Make sure you get out of it by 125mph

Thanks machxlr8.. I love the 4.10s because its that much funner on the street but I almost regret getting them for that exact reason you mentioned.. I feel like once I hit 5th I'm toast.. and all I ever do is roll race around here. Once the rear end blow I plan on sticking to 3.42s again haha.
