Hi guys, I need some input here. I have an 87 foxbody. HCI with 3.55 gears. It's a weekend toy that I beat the piss out of at the track when I can. I blew up another WC t5 recently, and I am in the process of getting an astro A5. The A5 has the 2.95 first gear as opposed to the 3.35 T5 first gear. My issue is I don't want to hurt my track times by having a longer first gear. Do you think it will hurt? The best I have run is a 13.0 @110 with a 1.694 60' and that was with a badly slipping clutch. Do you think I will benefit going to a 3.73 gear or staying with the 3.55s? I have 26" rear tires. Thanks for any input
