as long as you never go over 100 WHILE RACING you will be fine with 4.10s

No kidding about the same post over and over and over. No offense dude, just saying check the other topics first. I thought there were moderators here? lol
I say if you repeat threads/topics that have already been addressed within 1 month, they get banned, lol. Damn I gotta be careful now when I post a new topic, lol.

Oh yeah I went with 3.73's

373s are a good choice if you have some boost.

What if you are racing the 1/4 with a 02 gt mid pipe, cat back, intake, tune, T/B, short throw and intake is there any chance that you will be going over 100 in the 1/4 even though "you can never go over 100 while racing?"

you should be able to go over a 100 in the 1/4 with those mods. I did. Your 4th gear will go a little faster than 100 but Once you redline and then go into 5th your just not going anywhere, 5th gear has no power at all. If your spraying its not a good idea to spray in 5th.

i just purchased 4.10s and the only thing that scares me is that with my mods in my sig, i trap 100-101. wouldnt the 410s hurt me then when im near the finish line?? thats the only thing that i am worrying about right now

Do I need to dig up my post in Mt Twigbert's gear thread? He got 4.10s in his cobra and he runs out 4th at about 115 MPH. He, with minor mods, can already trap over 100, and he is going to be adding a blower. He'll EASILY be able to trap over 115... 4.10's aren't the answer there, and frankly, too many people just spout out 4.10 now.

i agree whole heartedly 4.10s make sense for the normal bolt on driver, but any forced induction and thats just tooo much gear
