You may get a better reply if you state which gear box you are using, i still can't believe knowone has offered any advice, it suggests you have entered into a distinctly un sporting & un friendly formula, please correct me if i'm wrong

Circuit 1st 2nd 3rd 4th

Brands Hatch 13/37 16/31 16/24 19/24
Indy

These are the ones I used BUT I had a 13/36 CWP so work out the ratios including the CWP then do the same for your CWP eg the near 1st gear is 14/36

13/36 x 13/37 = 0.1268 10/31 x 14/36 = 0.1254

These are the standard ratios I used others prefer a higher 1st to use at the hairpin coupled with a higher 2nd they can hold all the way down the hill to Graham Hill bend

The above ratios you use 2nd for the hairpin and need to go up to 3rd and then back to 2nd for Graham Hill Bend

Hope this helps

John
