Do you feel that the car with the 3.91 and the VF engineering is not suitable ?
I chose to go back to the 3.62 final drive ratio based on a few things:
1) Jim Blanton actually recommended it, saying that it was one of BMW's better decisions in terms of gearing
2) I miss staying in gear for a longer amount of time; with the charger, each gear goes by real quick
3) I primarily only go to Laguna Seca, and for me personally, I can benefit from not having to shift so much at this particular track.
4) I secretly wanted to save some money
