Trick question!!
Stick or automatic? How much HP and how much weight? I will say this, only change the rear gear ratio to adjust your finish line RPM's. "Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular" Dave Cook C375

automatic!!
stock elim car. just trying to figure the quickest way to get to the 330 mark without giving up et at the 1/4 mile. never mind mph it seems that you can get about any gear ratio for the trans that you want, so i'm wondering if et is quicker this way instead of using the rear gear. |
