Question

Because last fall's Cup race at Dega, I heard that the Chevy's and Ford's run less rpm's, and the Toyota's and Dodge's run around 8500-9000 rpms. Why is that?

yep the rear gear sets the rpm level when you're flar out all the way around

Answer 3

Because the Chevy and Fords run less RPM's than the Toyota's and Dodges.

Gee, that was simple.

Answer 4

The make of the car really doesnt have anything to do with it, the gear selections in the rear end is what controls that.
