Hi Adam – you mention how frustrated you are with the tall first gear – in my formula cars and sports racers I have gear sets tailored to each track and first is always really high – like shifting to second at 55mph-ish. The reason is that a tall first is a useable gear on the track at speed, like on slow corners. Otherwise, that first gear would only be good for comfy launches and you’d only have 3 gears to play with when you’re haulin’ mail.
