Let's talk gears.....
I have purchased a 4.5" swingarm extension. Now I plan to keep this off until after the last race and the 60" class at HRP. But I need some advice on what gearing to use. RIght now I am running 10.40'2 but with a higher MPH. Last time at the track I was putting down some 138-145 MPH but slower than expected ET's. I remember getting almost to the end and the bike wanting to shift from 3rd to 4th. I want to keep the bike in 3rd through the traps correct? What gearing are we talking? 17 tooth in front? Who has the best prices? CHime in here....

You should be using all of 4th gear trapping upper 14x range. -1 tooth front (17T) is a good starting point. Hold your RPMs higher on every gear and use all of 4th gear.
