RB MT cars...

With the ability to hold more power to redline, are you guys finding on a quarter mile setup that you're now just ringing out 3rd gear or are you still hitting 4th before the finish?

Redline tops out at 100 mph in 3rd gear ... How do you plan on going faster winding out 3rd?

About 6,200 is 100 mph, not redline. Curious if anyone raised redline and tried to hold third is all.

Rb cars trap at least mid 120s, of course you are obviously going to 4th regardless.

I trap 120mph with my stockers and there's no way I can hold out in third.
