As far as gears, a lot depends on the trans and tire diameter. For highway, we like to see about 2400 rpm at 70 to 75 mph. So the O.D. ratio comes into play. For most autocross, GoodGuys and USCA are mostly 'first gear' coarses, so as a rule, in first gear you want about 9.5" of tire roll per 1 RPM. So tir diameter can play big into the gear ratio here. 3.5 or 3.73 is usually pretty close.
Thanks for all of the info and as always very informative and helpful. I'll be in touch.
