auto or stick

if stick, go 3.73 or maybe 4.10 if you got lots of power

if auto, go 4.30 for better times.

4.10's if you are stick and an average-ish driver
4.30's if you are stick and can shift like Buzz Lightyear
4.30's, for what you described, if you are an auto.

what gear do you want to be in when you cross the line? the higher the gear, the more likely you'll have to pull 4th gear.

Technically, you want to be in the top of 5th. You want to use as much of your total gearing as you can. But trapping in the low 100's thats not really possible/sane. lol

i dunno i think 4:30s are a bit much....i dunno i could be wrong but i think a 4:10 gear would be perfect.

4.10s are better for an average driver and 4.30s for ppl that know exactly what they are doing
