Based on your own experience (5spd peeps), at what RPM do you guys shift at when going for max performance? Touch redline or no?

my recomendation stands obviously were looking to get the car to shift the milli second before fuel cut , and with the quicker pace of 1st gear you'll have to react early 6900...2nd about 71 if youre fast third is easy

there's no way you're starting the 1-2 shift when the rpm gauge is at 7200...momentum would carry it to 75+ at that rate of accelleration im speaking of the point when you acctually move your hand

when the car stutters from the fuel cut off, it's time to shift. ![2 Cents](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/2cents.gif)
