Ramesh, at the moment, the way the rule is written, you can run any gear ratio.

Whenever preparing cars it's always a good idea to refer to the regulations for the classes you are preparing the cars for.

I often do just that to ensure that my cars take advantage of what's allowed, yet are legal for what's not.
