That is outstanding results for a once a year airport race Lots of fun shifting, huh I drove a SB Duster that had a Dana 60 with 5.57 rear gears, 3.09 first gear with 13x30 slicks, I was real busy in the first three gears Never had time to look at the tach, let the clutch out at 6500 and start shifting away
