Where I got highway gears 2.xx:1, I usually get up to 15-20 mph in 1st and then let her rip until 40-45 mph intown so basically 2500-6000 rpm, She still gets up and goes ok from a dead stop. I've been told by a certain someone that 1st is useless on the street traction wise with a 360, but my old BF 245 seem to do ok guess it's the highway gears and 9:1 cr (V/P) :)
