Not Ranked
I'm car number 4 in the video, yellow Cobra with Alabama tag. I have 3:55 gears with 26" tires and a small block with a lot of low end torque. TKO 600 with the 2.97 1st gear. I sold my TKO with a 3.27 because first gear was useless.
There is no way I could use 4:10 gears in my Cobra. NO WAY

If I were a gamblin' man, and had to pick the neighborhood of the rearend (3.27 or 4.10), I'd pin the tail on the donkey like this ...
Car #1 - 3.27
Car #2 - 3.27
Car #3 - 4.10
Car #4 - 4.10
Car #5 - 3.27 (coupe)
Car #6 - 3.27
Car #7 - 4.10
... and so on
Personally, I would rather meter the clutch a little until she hooks up for a catapult launch vs. shifting into 2nd after 30', but that's just me
