4.08 Gears @ VIR and CMP?

AntiVenom

I am building my car with the purpose of being a weekend/track/autoX car. Nothing serious in terms of competition, just like getting out there and having some legal fun.

Eventually the car will have all the bolt on mods, including ported intakes/TBs. Before those go on I am going to put a Wavetrac in the rear and figured it would be the opportune time to throw some shorter gears in at the same time. My motive is a little more pep around town, not drag strip (although I won't say 100% it will never make a 1/4 mile run)

With that, I started to do some research around gears. In a couple of threads the concern of whether or not 4.08 gears would be favorable for track use was brought up. With the general idea being that it might be favorable for some and not others.

Long story short, I would primarily be going to VIR and some CMP since I live in Raleigh, NC. Anyone have specific experience with 4.08 gears on either of these tracks and whether or not they are agreeable with the track layouts, or do you wind up out of gear or shifting too often?

Input on 3.9s would be welcome as well.

Thanks!
