Who follows the 1" per rev. gearing rule (rollout ratio)?

Did you consider listing the actual rollout value in the results with all the other calculated values? Then as you played around with different variables you could see how it affected your rollout. And you could still use the gearing table to find what would put you at 1:1

The two values are already there, so I suppose anyone who wanted to could divide it themselves (what I have been doing) but it would save that extra step.

Just wanted to take the opportunity to thank Brian for the speed calculator. Its probably saved all of us hours of number crunching! The hidden warnings about the 45mph is a good and welcome idea.

Since you're including the calculation for the recommended pinion for 1:1 rollout ratio, maybe it would be a good idea to include the little bit about (tire circumference) / (gear reduction ratio) in either the discriptions or a displayed calculation?
