    Something you should try either way. I prefer a lower gear for dry. Some prefer a higher gear.

      If you are good at easing off the throttle on corner entry, a lower gear might work for you, if not go higher. I would try both as Confused said. JMO.

        More gear. When its dry, you are on the throttle less so you need the gear. And its easier to control wheel spin

          I liked lower gear in my car, but my engine also liked to be lugged more than screaming rpm. Going from a 5.29 to 5.14 9" made a big difference for me. So there are a few variables, the beauty of the qc is you can dial it in better and faster.

            A lower gear has a higher number. 5.29 is lower than a 5.14
