Long gears let you accelerate longer without having to shift...
yeah, but if your car isnt making power up where you eventually do need to shift, those gears are hurting you...and if they arent cut to be have good shift points, they dont help either.....such as how the GSR gearing is great to stay in VTEC and right around the secondary runners area...whereas a celica GTS drops out of its VVTL-i range because toyota was too concerned to get 1st and 2nd to get to 60mph rather than gearing it correctly.
