The gearing doesn
t really make any difference. Youll not be able to work out your time, It all changes every race. Besides which your performances will vary as you warm up (or get cold!) and when its head-to-head youll do better. The only strategy to employ is to get a hard first rev and keep going smooth with lots of muscle tension.
