the only advantage to a longer geared tranny is a higher top speed. But you will never need that extra length of gears in a 1/4.

the race would be over (street or strip) b4 u actually had a use for the longer gears.

if its only for top speed, how do you figure economy cars use them? just to keep the revs down i suppose

what about the whole spool, shift, spool, shift deal u always hear about .....if u keep ur rpms up high enough u wont have to spool the turbo back up after shifting,???? i just always heard that longer gears where good b/c u didnt have to shift as much and drop out of the spool range of the turbo???
