thanx for the link... its also in my bookmarks...
im just kinda confused on a 400 or 500 hp car with a 6 speed... and since the most hp i have ever been behind the wheel of is 300 hp if i was lucky in my camaro before i took it apart... right now i drive a vw golf with 100hp 170ft lbs... and does about 130mph top speed in 5th gear and it feels like if i had a 6th it would still pull.
heres where the calculator wont help me i think... im not sure what ratios it takes to have the car still pull me to a high speed quickly... and all the local cars i see at the track use 4 speeds and automatics i think.. and are mostly just drag cars...
anyways i just about finished my body jig tonight.. so thinking gear ratios is not my thing tonight.. ill figure it out later... thanks
