Because I didn't like (at all) wagging the tail while gently rolling in to half throttle in 3rd gear.
Now I actually have to "get after it" to wag the tail in 3rd - 2nd bumps the rev limiter around 68-72mph.
I've said before, with these light cars and big HP, low gears aren't the right fit. If I had that HP, a 3:15, or 3:27 gear would be my first choice.
