Picking gears

For the guys who might want to do some math;
3.09 low box with a GVOD splitter, and 3.55s
the road ratios are; Gv in red
10.97-8.56-6.78-5.29-4.93-3.85.3.55-2.76
5.29 and 4.93 are too close together.Or are they?This is just 6.8%, and at 6000 this is just 408rpm between them. If I ....................naw forget it, I'm just not into 1/4 miling.

For the guys with a 2.66box and 4.30s, the road gears are;
11.44-8.21-5.98-4.30.

Doing the math; I am 4.3% short in first ratio,4.3% better in second ratio,13.4% better in the third ratio,and skipping 5.29,I am 14.7% better thru the traps. Or would be if I cared to go. That's 2 tugs and one button shift for a total of 4 ratios

With 3.55s I can pull 4 ratios in the 1/8th, burning thru the traps at 93mph=5990average rpm; 1 tug,2buttons. Shazzam!
