Really?? I bet any amount of money if you take to identical m3s to the drag strip and one has a 4: 10 rear, that it will be the faster car..

To the other guy, yes, everything has it's drawbacks and you speak as to how to other guy will be shifting more. But what you didn't state is that the car with gears (driven right) will be much quicker out of the hole and should hold that gap
