Another reason I recommend the numerically lower gear,
I drove the yellow Steeda Q650 (Whippled) car quite a few times.
That thing is a freaking rocketship.
Zero to 80 in about 3 seconds or less, that quick, no lie.
Scary fast.
Even with all the good stuff on the motor and chassis,
great tires, etc.
FOR ME, I found the car to be difficult to handle at WOT.
Yes, it is an S197 (different), and I am a decent driver (not excellent by any means),
but I believe that car had 4.10's,
and remember thinking it would be more fun with less gear.
It is quicker than a lightning bolt,
but I just thought it was too "nervous" with that much gear.
The gear basically overshadowed the excellent chassis it had.
Maybe it was me that was nervous, who knows?
Just my opinion.
