We finished up the season of the American Autocross series this wkend. Yesterdays course was fast and hi speed. Competition was high both days, but I am happy to have been within about 1 sec of DM, EM and some well prepped XP cars. I was in 3rd for the 2nd half of the course, but Mike wood in his 88 Van Diemen was in 4th for part of the course(and about 0.6 sec faster than I was). This got me thinking, my top speed in 2nd is about 60.5 mph, 80 in 3rd. I am thinking of re gearing to 55 in 2nd and 70 in 3rd and planning on a bit more slow speed punch and a bit more shifting 2nd to 3rd. I know there have been some posts about this topic, but I wanted to bring it up again here in the off season to get an idea what others are running and opinions on the topic.
And I need a 16/30 LD200 gear set to make it work, so if anyone is willing to part with one, let me know.
