Say your target RPM is 8500. What are you running for a gear at the Chili Bowl?

Somewhat depends on tire dia and also which R&P you have. You interested in which gear set number or final overall ratio? I don’t remember what set we ran out there. There are also some special “chili bowl” gear sets out there as well.

Final overall ratio

You could put the same gear in 3 identical cars and see huge variation in peak rpm just in how each car is driven
