Race setups have you in high gear at the eighth mark and it's just the ride from that point on regardless.

Yeah, that also fits in with the fact that he has changed to the correct theory on camshafts now, I'm betting he'll find more power and more RPM working with the correct lobe designs. That gearing combination will allow him to put the gains he'll make in the future to good use. Not breaking valvetrain components will allow him to race the car and learn, instead of trying to keep it in one piece and running. Racing is about to get much more fun!
