who wants to help me build a technologically advanced rear end for all kinds of cars, that allows you to simply change ratios often, and easily..

so it will only take like, an hour to go from 2.73's for a LONG interstate trip, to 4.56's for a few runs at the drag strip??

im gonna make MILLIONS and MILLIONS....

i just have to figure it out.....
They've been making quick change rears longer than you've been alive. Takes less than 5 minutes to do a complete gear swap.

I currently have a set of FRPP 4.10's sitting on the floor in my room and i'm really debating wether or not to put them in. I got em since everyone raves about how great they are. My only concern is hooking up with that small of a gear. The other night i was drag racing with some buddies and i could not hook up for the life of me. I mean i was spinnin em all the way through 1st and almost all of 2nd and thats with the stock gears. I imagine it will be only harder to get traction once i put the 4.10's in. Please convince me as to why i should put them in. Am i just being a little too skeptical???? How could i go about gettin better traction if i do decide to put them in?
You should have never bought 4.10's if you can't afford to compensate for the quicker accelleration. Sounds like you need to learn how to feather the clutch and get through the gears with as little spin as possible without slowing yourself down.

Keep your stock gears if you don't want to put some LCA's & a good set of tires or Drag Radials on to make use of any gear shorter than stock.

dont slip the clutch Kinda stupid If I have to say so. Just feather the throttle. And launch at lower rpms. Just get them installed, and practive launching.
