nice man, the best I ran with my stock 3.08 gear in the 1/8 was 9.29 @ 77mph with a 2.24 short time. If you're curious that ended up being a 14.2 @ 99.

After switching to 3.55s and a Nitto drag radial i managed 8.9 @ 78 in the 1/8 and 13.89 @ 99 in the 1/4 with a 1.999, and she probably had a little more in her.

street tires or drag radials?

Thanks Onyx! That's what I would like this car to run, a low 14. It feels good, but these gears just make the car feel lazy off the line and there's a huge drop in rpm from 1st to 2nd. If I could trap at 98-99(1/4) that would be great. May I ask what your rpm is at @60mph and 70mph. Because I am really leaning toward getting some 3.55's. Thanks!

I mentioned that I switched to a drag radial when I changed gears.

oh, my bad my eyes jumped right over it

sure, I haven't driven the car since July so it's kind of hard for me to remember exactly. I want to say at 60 it's about 1800 and 70 is about 2200; i know 75mph is 2400rpm.

Thankyou! I think 3.55's will be my next order of business. I take it that KenneBell has kept you occupied

No problem dude. and yes it has, more than i ever expected it to. That and I spent a lot of time struggling with long tubes also so that's fun. I missed out on some good driving at the end of the season but hopefully next year will make up for it.

A lot of people will suggest going lower than 3.55s but i'm one of those rare cases, if my car saw the track more I would have considered 3.73s but either way you really can't go wrong, i just wanted the lowest RPM i could and still get a noticeable gain.
