Ford 4.6/T-45 users..?

[t500hps]

I know of one National Championship car that ran a stock T45. If I remember Kevin never used fifth. I did use fifth at COTA just for a second running 3:31's but I know Kevin did not.

I never use 5th either. My T-45's are upgraded for heavy shifting but the gears, etc are all stock. We hit 133mph at one track and 138mph at another....approaching the limit of my 4th gear. One track we now run hits 120mph tops so some extra gear would be nice.....Nationals at Daytona (Is anyone going?) could be 150mph but none of us know what speed to prepare for yet.

Also, what was top speed at COTA?

No idea of top speed at COTA. I'm guessing around 130 but no idea really. I have ran 3:75's 3:55's and now 3:31's. Guys with 4:10 pull me out of a turn in a drag race but then they have to shift and I pull back even. It does not sound correct but at least two of the fastest Texas CMC guys were running 3:28's to limit shifting. Michael is also very fast an he runs 3:55's. I'm sure there is a "best gear" for every track. Not many CMC guys I know are going to change between events.
