When it comes to rings and pinions all opinions have the ring of
truth. Ugh. Can't believe I did that.

Pretty much depends on the weight of your car and the revs you're
willing to use. I like the 3.9 which is hard to come by but great for
most of the tracks I run Peyote on. If I run a 4.1 I'm out of useful
power at the end of long straights. Right now I have a 3.7 in the car
because I toasted my 3.9.  It's a little boggy, but I make up for
that by not slowing for the corners.
