It is geared a bit low. We run an 79/80 on depending on conditions. But your driver also has to learn to carry more speed through the hair pin. We don’t drop below 7,400 and gearing alone won’t make up the difference. All things being equal, each tooth is good for about 200 rpm. So 4 teeth will only bring it up to 6,000.
