No there is someone here in our forum that does recommend 4:30s' believe it or not. I know there was a guy at a dragstrip that we use to go to that had them. Personally I would buy what I would want because you are the working for them. If you have any other questions email or pm Bluestar. He has 3:73s' and he loves them. He used to have 4:10s' but what I gathered he didn't like running his car in a higher RPM range when he did hisbusiness tripswhich was mainly interstate. I myself find it even more enjoyable for the interstate because of the quick torque that I am able to obtain being already in the power range to obtain it. 3:55s' in my opinion get you to the power curve when the 4"10s' you operate in the power curve. Hope this helps. It's a tough decision. See if you can meet someone at a car show or a meet that will let you test drive their car. I live in South Carolina and I letpeople drive my all the time. Fortunately no one has wrecked it yet.

 

Haha! Hope fully no one will wreck your car. Thanks for the good info.

 

Thanks dude. Whatever you do enjoy your car. I feel so fortunate to have one. It's depressing to think that some of us will never be able to enjoy the S-197 because it's a keeper.
