Happy Ford Sierra Rear Differential Day!

Because a perfect circle is one with teeth sending power to the rear wheels. 3.14:1!!!
I’m not talking about the Sierra Cosworth. That Sierra had a much more stout 3.64 LSD rear gear. Nope, I’m talking about the most plebeian of Sierras, where forbidden fruit meets rotten tomatoes.
But, hey, at least it could still hustle around a track to exciting cocaine-fueled, big hair, commercial techno.

3.14? 3.64? Those are some seriously loafy gears for a car that size. Did the engine redline at 5000 or something?
If we stick with this being PI day we can celebrate by eating pie. What would we do for differential day?
