Jim I agree, 3.55's would be a great "all round" gear to use. But for drag racing, wouldn't 3.91's be so much better?
I know you guys are using low profile DR's on the strip, but if you had a pair of 285/40/19's for the highway, even with a 3.91 gear you would only be turning 3052 RPM's at 65 mph.

Like I've said before, I have 3.73's in my AMX with no overdrive, and have had no problems driving as far away as Daytona Beach.
Grip I can't wait until you break into the 10's, then listen to all the wise-a$$ remarks from the Supra boyz.
Congrats on your latest times.
