If I remember correctly the Richmond transmission 5th gear is 1:1, so you have to do a lot of shifting. Others have started in second for a drag run. I remember Keith Craft ran in the run-n -gun several years ago with a very high hp big block and had to start in 2nd to get his best times (low 10's) with 4th gear being 1:1, but burned out his clutch. The Richmond 5 spd to get to 1:1 compounds the problem for drag racing.
