My question, Is there ANYBODY here on the forum (who is a serious drag racer) trying to develope a better gear ratio for drag racing the Crossfire?
I know the deminsions of the SLK differential (that the Crossfire uses) limits us when it comes to having enough room to accomodate a more useful differential housing. But surely there has to be some other car makers differential that could be swapped in place of what we have now.
I know Rudy would have to work his magic and talk the computer into accepting a different gear ratio, and
I realize new axles would need to be fabricated, or our current axles would need to be modified. As would the drive shaft mounts. But we aren't talking rocket science here guys.
I mean if some back yard yah hoo's can build a "Rat Rod" with an XKE rear suspension, how hard would it be to come up with a better geared, stronger rear end for the Crossfire?
You don't think those 9 sec Supras are running "Stock" 3.07 gears do ya?
Do you realize, that a SRT6 with nothing more than a Neeswings Dual CAI, a tune, (maybe a pulley) should be capable of high 10's with a 4.44 "limited slip" gearing and slicks?
It's all been done before on a similar car, I don't see why it can't happen with the Crossfire.

Just a suggestion I'm throwing out there. http://www.1speedway.com/irs_quickchange.htm
I know there's an abundance of technological and mechanical talent in the Crossfire community, I would think this small hurdle could be cleared with ease.
Mercedes gave us the H.P. they just forgot to supply the right gears for the average American "performance" enthusiasts.
