Default Turbo 1.6L at the 1/8, v2

So my last showing of 9.2@80mph was less than impressive, turns out tires and a 3.90 can really make a difference! Managed an 8.701@84.90.

You would go faster with a 4.10 or 4.30 gear.

No... no I wouldn't. I used to run with a 4.30 and it was awful. The 3.90 has helped greatly. 4.30 had less traction in first and i would be topping out 3rd before the finish line.
