Can I run a 3.33 gear at 3.42 suggested track?

ZForceRacing01:
My car was last run @ Wake county in Raleigh, NC and has 3.33's. I plan to run Concord's 1/4 mile which is a 3.42 suggest track.

As a rookie getting started those gears are an added expense I am not looking forward too. Do you think I can run the 3.33's and still hang with the field or will they just eat me up off the corner?

VMS Motorsports:
Not familiar with either track or asphalt racing in Legends, but in a purely numbers sense, there theoretically shouldn't be a big difference, especially as you are learning to drive the car.
3.33 in 4th is a final drive of 4.30
3.42 in 4th is a final drive of 4.42

IraceLegends77:
They will pull you hard off the corner. I really don't think you can keep up with that gear. Sorry to be the voice of bad news.

NCSU_racer:
You will get killed off the corner. You could possibly trade with a couple of shops around Charlotte?  And I'm pretty sure that you run in 3rd gear at concord.

Jason Treschl Racing:
Gear is 3.42 in 3rd at concord. As mentioned above, you will get killed off the turns there with a 3.33.
