Seemed pretty even when we did a rolling start on Dragonball.

 

I started a bit low on the power band on that race, though we were pretty evenly matched!

 

The auto's are certainly quicker than the manual's - Each time I shifted I dropped and then was playing catching up.

I thought the gear ratios on the v161 were taller except for 6th?

 

Comparison is here: -

Edit: -

 

Ratios here show the V161 is shorter.

 

6 Speed (V160) / (V161)

3.827 / 3.724

2.360 / 2.246

1.685 / 1.541

1.312 / 1.205

1.000 / 1.000

0.793 / 0.818

3.280 / 3.192

3.266(all TT) / 3.769(NA)

 

Lower number:1 = higher (longer/taller) gearing -- fewer revs at a given road speed.

Higher number:1 = lower (shorter) gearing -- more revs at a given road speed.

 

No code has to be inserted here.

 

Based on those numbers:

1-5 on the V161 are higher than the V160.

6 on the V161 is lower than the V160.

 

 

Close ratio / wide ratio refers to the "gap" between the gears.
