That's not my point. My point is, the 3.73 equipped cars aren't (apparently) ETing quicker in the 1/4 than the taller geared cars, nor are they ETing quicker at any reference points, such as 1/8, 1000', etc. Any advantage the 3.73's hold is theoretical and unproven. I see a lot of people on this forum assuming that a shorter rear gear means a quicker car, which is not always the case. How power delivery meshes with the gearing is much more important than how short the gearing actually is.
