Logic says the 3:73s. Hot rodders all over the country would really be POed if installing lower ratio gears slowed the car down...lol.

If it's from a roll and both of your cars are evenly matched(auto vs auto, stock and stock, etc) then it may come more down to the weight of the driver.....

Well, what are you talking about? 1/8th mile? AutoX? Roadcourse?

Or should I just assume that you're talking about street racing & close the thread?

I went through intersection today, when it was raining, and the back end came around ~5-10 degrees accidentally and I got a ticket for wreckless driving.... Back tires are bald and it was slick out. Reminds me of that officer. Going to fight it in court.

He's probably talking about one of these private roads or air strips that are magically popping up all over the place. Pointless thread. "Hey, what's faster, a geared or a stock Camaro?...we'll be racing from 100mph to 110mph since neither one of us can drive or find a track"

Hey, I'd like to help answer the question, but the OP didn't specify why type of race he plans on engaging in. Just what he wasn't going to do. I found that strange, so I asked for more information -and gave a not-so-subtle reminder that talking about street racing isn't allowed on Camaro5. We've got it written in the rules, as well as at the top of this very section, but it seems that isn't clear enough for everyone.

If you feel that any of the moderators on the site are acting out of line, send them a PM so they can explain their actions. Or send one to another mod who you think are being fair & they can bring it up with the rest of us. Or take it up directly with the site administrator Tran. In any event, throwing a little insult at me probably isn't the best way to improve the situation.

I think he means they are going to race to the deathA camaro duel!

Just kidding. Yeah, I would think the 3.73s would win due to better acceleration (as long as he can hook up). That's kind of the point of getting them

Come on pal, lighten up. I think you should ASSUME its a hypothetical question...


To the OP... two IDENTICAL cars with IDENTICAL weights and performance... logic would say the 3.73s would beat the 3.27s or whatever is in the A6...

In the end, who knows... Maybe the other guys car is "stronger" from the factory... yes this is possible. We got a "factory freak" 1989 IROC. Anyone who drove it who had experience with those cars said it was the fastest 5.7L they ever drove... I drove it yesterday... its a dog

Anyhow... back to the point. Gears alone aren't going to set you in a league of your own. If your buddy has a stock L99 and you have a stock L99+gears, you may edge him a hair but its not going to be an earth shattering differnece.

I went from 3.45 to 4.10s... its nice but not a huge difference. It really just made 1st more fun and 6th actually usable. I am now back to 3.45s. :(

Your first sentence was more then adequate. Why not let him answer the question before getting sarcastic?

Ok guys, I work for a moderately new company called shift-s3ctor. We host track events in California and Arizona much like a speed ventures does.
We have decided to take our passion for hosting these events a step further and we have hosted an Airstrip event with MAJOR success with main more to come because of how much fun it was.
Here is the link: http://shift-s3ctor.com/2012/02/airs...-caravan-info/
Media coverage of the event: http://shift-s3ctor.com/
SO, for now on, if I decide to make a thread in this section, about roll on racing you will know what I’m talking about

I have AAM/LPE 3.70's in my mild 2010 SS and in my mind that's the gear the LS3/M6 should have come with from the factory.
