switching to 4.10 from 3.73

Boy, oh Boy,

I have been thinking of going with a shot of Giggle myself, for both the driver and the car! Ok, seriously now, I have many friend that are running the juice, and they have had at one time or another 3.73 gears, several of them ran out of top end, while running on the bottle. In other words they didn't have any more rpms to give, so they changed gears and went back to 3.27 in one case and the other 3.50.
Both of them use it after the 60' mark and run it through the lights. I have another buddy only runs his at launch, and doesn't run out of rpms,but he runs faster times, buy eating up the first half of the track, especially the 60' time is important, each.1 takes off .2 at the other end, so play around and see what happens I say gear it, you can always add bigger tires, and change the gearing that way, and they are cheap. And if you have a 5 spd, you have nothing to loose, you still have OD..
